| 7.30pm The Gershwin Hotel 7 E. 27th Street New York NY United States of America Details: Web site US$20 | Music/Words Dimitri Dover, piano Inna Faliks, piano Tom Thompson, poet Haydn: Sonata in C minor Prokofiev: Romeo and Juliet Chopin: Scherzo #2 Debussy: selected Preludes Liszt: transcriptions, etudes and the four-hand Symphonic Poem 'Orpheus' Original poetry by Tom Thompson Music/Words (www.musicwordsnyc.com), an interdisciplinary series founded and curated by NYC-based pianist Inna Faliks (www.innafaliks.com), continues its fourth season with a performance at New York’s Gershwin Hotel featuring Faliks at the piano along with guest pianist Dimitri Dover and poet Tom Thompson. MUSIC/WORDS celebrates links between poetry and music by presenting collaborations between exciting solo performers and acclaimed contemporary poets in the form of a live recital/reading. Inna Faliks created the series in order to foster a chance for poets and musicians to work together and inspire each other, as well as to allow different audiences to come together for these musical-literary events. New published and unpublished works are read alongside performances of music old and new and connected by content, intuition, and inspiration. According to Faliks, “I pair performers together based on their personalities and styles, and encourage them to choose the poems and music in varied ways that are strongly and intuitively connected.” In this performance, Mr. Thompson will tailor his readings to Mr. Dover’s and Ms. Faliks’ musical selections, finding poems from his own works that connect with the music. Music/Words will be featured in regular live broadcasts throughout the month of April 2013 on WFMT Radio in Chicago. |
