NEW YORK – The Hellenic-American Cultural Foundation (HACF) presents Poetic Soundscapes: Timotheos Gavriilidis-Petrin and Alexia Mouza, the New York debut of two premier Greek musicians of the next generation, cellist Timotheos Gavriilidis-Petrin and pianist Alexia Mouza, Wednesday, February 5, 7 PM, at Merkin Concert Hall at the Kaufman Music Center, 129 West 67th Street in New York City.
As a prize winner at the International Paulo Cello Competition, Timotheos was praised for his “great and passionate soloist style.” He has performed throughout North America and Europe, and is a member of the ApollΩn Ensemble and a founding member of Trio Zimbalist. Alexia is a Greek-Venezuelan pianist known for her extraordinary energy, clarity of sound and precision. She has received numerous awards, and has performed throughout Europe, Asia, and the Americas.
Their recital draws from the deepest roots in the musical tradition of the romantic era: Janáček’s Pohádka, Poulenc’s sonata for cello and piano, and Papandopulo’s Rapsodia Concertante. The program will close with Brahms’s Sonata No. 2 in F Major, which centers on the romantic notion of thought, passion and self, making it one of the most striking compositions for cello and piano.
A reception with Timotheos and Alexia will follow the event.
