Chicago Philharmonic
Moody 'Trisagion' the latest addition to Chicago Phil and Visceral Dance's developing friendship
Visceral Dance Chicago performed with the Chicago Philharmonic Society March 1 at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts.
"Of particular note, here and throughout the concert, the oft-unappreciated viola section is mightily featured, with sonorous solos for the principal violist, Claudia Lasareff-Mironoff, in the second piece: Grazyna Bacewicz’s 'Concerto for String Orchestra' (1948). This was a piece I had not heard, or heard of. Indeed, Speck’s introduction of it went so far as to guess it had not been played live in the Chicago area until now."

Classical
Vocal Reprints has published Five
American Duos for Viola and Mezzo-Soprano written for
Claudia Lasareff-Mironoff and Julia Bentley by the composers Robert
Lombardo, Kathleen Ginther and Elizabeth Start (compiled and edited
by Claudia Lasareff-Mironoff).
These beautifully
crafted compositions are well suited for the combination of viola
and voice and represent excellent additions to the recital repertoire. These
works have received warm praise from audience members and performing artists
alike. Even those not accustomed to the new music experience found that
the colorful and expressive music and poetry made the pieces highly accessible.
