SOOFSER JUNE!
Soofser 2015/4 dedicated to music of V4 countries (Symbolic hand-over of Slovak Presidency to the Czech Republic). A big thank you to Peter Breiner and his crew for an excellent program, great musicians, Czech Center in New York for cooperation, and sponsors: Slovak Embassy in Washington DC, Czech Consulate General in NY, Restaurant Korzo from Brooklyn. Many thanks to everybody who attended. It was a memorable evening!
Check out the June 26th Line/Up : www.Soofser.com
Dear All;
two more Soofsers are upon us this summer:
JUN 26 2015
Special V4 Soofser
(special indeed, this time we’ll have a small stipend for musicians, too)
At the end of Jun, the year of Slovakia’s (my home country) presidency of Visegrad Four countries (Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia) ends. This is an opportunity for us, in cooperation with Czech Center in NYC Slovak Embassy and Slovak Consulate in NYC. to present a concert with works of composers of these four countries.
If you have anything Czech, Slovak, Polish or Hungarian in your repertoire or some Czech, Slovak, Polish or Hungarian ancestors in your family tree, be a part of this.
JULY 24 2015
Special Godar Soofser
At this concert we would like to present some of the chamber works of a composer, whom I personally consider for one of the best living composers on Earth - Vladimir Godar. I actually met some of the Soofser performers at a concert of his works here in New York.
We are looking for any of the following (Godar’s output is not only extraordinary, but huge, too):
soloists (piano, 4 hand piano,violin, cello, viola)
duo (2 violins, 2 cellos, violin+pno, cello+pno, viola+pno, cello+harp)
trio (violin+cello+piano)
quartet (2violins+cello+piano, violin+viola+cello+bass)
quintet (2 violins+viola+cello+piano)
vocalists with chamber setting (soprano+violin+cello+piano, alto+string quartet, alto+string quintet, alto+piano)
please let us know your ideas and suggestions. Let your friends and colleagues know as well.
Thanks and have a great summer
