How beautiful is this setting?

This Sunday at 3pm, Trio Fadolín makes our debut at the Concerts by the Pond series in Cold Spring Harbor, playing folk music from Armenia and Central Asia, as well as pieces by Barvinsky and our fadolínist Ljova --- and when they say "by the pond", this is the place!
We have a couple of discount codes - PM us directly.

See you!

hi friends, I decided to offer #fadolín lessons -- both as a teacher and a student --- more here: https://www.ljova.com/2025/03/fadolin-lessons-with-ljova/

If you're interested in lessons, please reach out!

I don't know how many #stringplayers there are here right now, but I wrote a long post about a topic we all love and care about -- Chinrests! See here: https://www.ljova.com/2025/03/life-is-just-a-box-of-chinrests/ #chinrests #music #violin #violinists #viola #violists #fadolín #fadolin

Turns out we can't control the weather afterall --- our afternoon concert with @triofadolin got postponed to March 23, but my evening concert with cellist Tamar Sagiv at Barbès is still on -- if you're looking for #superbowl alternatives in New York -- https://www.ljova.com/event/tamar-sagiv-and-ljova-at-barbes/ #music #chambermusic #fadolín #fadolín #cello #cellist #iloveny #brooklyn #snow

This Sunday afternoon @triofadolin makes its Long Island debut at @concertsbythepond in Cold Spring Harbor!

We are so excited to bring a program that includes folk music from Armenia, Romania, and Central Asia as well as music by Vasyl Barvinsky and Ljova.

A couple of weeks ago @triofadolin brought this very varied globe-trotting program to Greenwich House, by Washington Square Park -- this Sunday at 3pm we're playing some of it, plus music by Tashkent-based composer Dmitry Yanov-Yanovsky, and Latvian composer Pēteris Vasks (almost certainly a US premiere), to the Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church's concert series. Join us! https://trio.fadolin.com

Hi Mastodon! We are Trio Fadolín - a New York-based ensemble featuring the violin, cello, and a fadolín - a unique instrument finding its footing in chamber music for the very first time.

Dusting off my solo fadolín repertoire for a performance at Barbès this Saturday at 6pm -- Mireia Clua and I will both play some of our solo repertoire and possibly -- for the first time ever? -- a fadolín duo?

“Hallelujah” for solo fadolín (or viola)

"I think what the world needs is a "Hallelujah" transcription for solo viola", said my dear old friend Pemi, a great violist in Montreal. I couldn't agree more.

NEXT UP for Trio Fadolín -- we're heading uptown for a performance sponsored by the Washington Heights Chamber Orchestra, on Thursday the 25th at 7pm, in the garden of Fort Washington Collegiate Church, steps away from the A train at 181st Street.

In case of bad weather, the performance will move indoors.

Free! Donations gratefully accepted.

See you out there!

A little share before taking a hiatus -- here's a little demo for a tune I wrote in our neighborhood, at Effy's Cafe on the Upper West Side a few days ago. Great little place and vibe. No click tracks, as ever.

Enjoy and see you out there!
