Ghenady Meirson, Founder
"Meirson, the emissary of Russian music to Philadelphia, gave every note its exacting Russian accent. ... [audience] admiring the singing and Meirson's symphonic playing."
The Philadelphia Inquirer You come. You like. You share.It's a tradition. Lots of fun and great music making. Pizza and happy juice party. After Iolanta dress run we rehearsed the Nutcracker ballet. Yes, we decided to recapture the excitement of Iolanta/Nutcracker double-bill premier of 1892. Tchaikovsky would be proud.
After two straight runs of entire Eugene Onegin singers took a minute to record a video invitation for upcoming performances. The week was filled with intense master classes and final dress rehearsals.
