Chamber Players International Landmark Musical Cuisine Concert March 2016 Celebrating Keyboard Masterworks of J.S. Bach at Old Westbury Gardens in Old Westbury, Nassau County, Long Island, New York.
Chamber Players International will present the second concert of its 2015/16 Landmark/Musical Cuisine series, on Sunday, March 6, with the concert at 2:00 PM and a wine/buffet reception at 3:30 PM at The Red Ballroom at Old Westbury Gardens, 71 Old Westbury Road in Old Westbury, NY. Wines are provided courtesy of Banfi Vintners.
This program features keyboard masterworks of J.S. Bach, including his Italian Concerto and concertos in E major, BWV 1053 and G minor, BWV 1058. Piano soloist will be Julia Zilberquit, with violinist Bela Horvath and violist Mialtin Zhezha as other principal soloists.
Russian-born American pianist Julia Zilberquit has earned critical acclaim as a recitalist, orchestral soloist, chamber musician and recording artist. She was praised by The New York Times as "an outstanding soloist" after her Carnegie Hall performance of Cesar Franck's symphonic poem Les Djinns for piano and orchestra with Leon Botstein and the American Symphony Orchestra.
In 2014 Warner Classics released her CD, Bach: Complete Solo Keyboard Concertos; Bach-Vivaldi. This recording features the premiere of two Bach-Vivaldi Concerti Grossi arranged by Ms. Zilberquit for piano and orchestra. The recording was hailed as a "gorgeous rendition" by Gramophone Magazine.
