- Christ United Methodist Church
Additional Information
Rochester Chamber Music Society presents Music of Soviet Russia on Saturday, January 14, at 7:30 pm at Christ United Methodist Church.
Prokofiev and Shostakovich fought battles for the right to compose freely under Stalin and the Soviet era. In spite of all their hardships and fear from the dogma of socialism, these two composers emerged with international reputations and an admiring public. Brace yourselves for the intensity of the politically and emotionally charged music of these two composers in this concert. Also on the program is a piece by Arvo Pärt. The performers are Daniel Rieppel, piano, Brian Krinke, violin, and Jane Cords-O’Hara, cello.
