Two young musicians in works for viola and piano offer an admirable program
By Lawrence Budmen
Sat Dec 31, 2011
The viola is sometimes viewed as the neglected child of the string family, often assigned inner lines and figuration in chamber and orchestral scores. 2011 has proved a banner year for the instrument in South Florida. A superb recital in April by Yuri Bashmet and Kim Kashkashian’s recent program of works by America composers for SoBe Arts’ American Masterworks Festival displayed the instrument’s range and versatility to impressive effect. Violist Nathan Schram and pianist Marina Radiushina, both members of New York’s esteemed Ensemble ACJW, presented a varied program Friday night at the recital hall of the Miami Conservatory of Music in Coconut Grove.

It was a lively mixing of performance art and music

The event brought a lot of new faces out for Gallery Walk and many of the other gallery owners left their gallery for a bit to check out the performance. It's something that will be repeated again maybe in other areas of the Grove, so that everyone gets a little piece of culture. As someone told me, it's more than just about the art, it's about the community involvement and the mixing and mingling of friends and the whole live scene.
An afternoon of culture envelopes the cool fall days

Looks like a new trend is starting on Gallery Walk days, the music is starting early. The Windisch-Hunt Gallery held the Peace Flags Concert and at the same time, the Miami Conservatory of Music had classical music performances right outside their school, beside the water fountain.

The Miami Conservatory of Music added a lot of high-end culture to Saturday night's Gallery Walk. They had performances all night at their end of the Mayfair Promenade, which is a little world unto itself. Alain Orbiz on cello, Andres Trujillo on violin and Jose Alfredo Fernandez on guitar enchanged the audience.
Singin' and playin' in the rain

The Miami Conservatory of Music opened right on schedule last week, for the first day of school. There's a lot of orange coming from that building now, along with lots of music and talent.

There will be a lot of music emanating from the Mayfair Promenade starting next week, because the Miami Conservatory of Music is moving in. They're coming from Oak Avenue, just a block away.
