On Monday the 25th, Trio Fadolín is playing a free performance at the Bruno Walter Auditorium at Lincoln Center, which will include the premiere of a piece called "Yidisher Kontsert" by Yehiel Goyzman, in my arrangement. The piece is an ambitious fusion of klezmer & classical music, written at the turn of the 20th century.

Registration info is on our site!

The ghost of Hindemith — or maybe Elmer Fudd — is certainly lurking somewhere here — and (spoiler alert) he’ll be back in a few other episodes, too.

I didn't get any response to my previous two posts -- shall I try to post #Discontentfarm videos individually and see if they get any traction?

alright, let’s do this!

Hello Mastodon friends -- check out my “Discontent Farm” – thirty solo fadolín pieces recorded in the space of about an hour in December 2023. All of these will be uploaded on a daily basis to FB and IG, but since I can't very well upload short video content to Mastodon (or can I?), here are all thirty episodes in a row, along with some notes: ljova.com/2024/01/discontent-f #fadolín #fadolin #discontentfarm #ljova #improvisation #expression #newmusic #music #musica #violin #violinists #viola #violists

Hezekiah Leroy Gordon Smith (August 14, 1909 – September 25, 1967), better known as #StuffSmith, an American #JazzViolinist is well known for the song "If You're a Viper" (You'se a Viper).

Smith was one of jazz music's preeminent #SwingEra #Violinists.
Smith was critical of the bebop movement, although his own style represented a transition between swing & bebop. He is credited as being the first #Violinist to use electric amplification techniques on a violin. #Jazz

#Putin threatens #Moldava, which many people could not find on a map. One of the treasures this small country has brought the world is #PatKop a brilliant violinist here performing a piece of music which, when written, was no played because it was regarded as impossibly difficult. Now teenagers play it from memory. Kids these days.
