SUMMARY:Erben Organ Recital by Dr. Michal Szostak\, Poland
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special recital by renowned Polish concert organist\, Dr. Michał Szostak. We are excited to finally host him at the Erben.

Back on tour in North America\, Dr. Szostak brings a fresh program of Bach\, Beethoven\, Chopin\, and improvisations. Don’t miss his appearance at the historic Erben organ! \n>>> GET TICKETS\n\nProgram:\n1. J.S. Bach (1685-1750)\, Fantasia in G Major\, BWV 572 \n2. J.S. Bach\, Air on G-string\, from Orchestral Suite in D Major\, BWV 1068 \n3. Improvisation\, Italian Concerto: Allegro-Adagio-Allegro \n4. J.S. Bach\, Nun komm der Heiden Heiland\, BWV 659 \n5. Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1826)\, Allegro con brio\, from the 5th Symphony in C Minor\, Op. 67 \n6. Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849): \n\nPraeludium E Minor\, Op. 28\, No 4\nMazurka B flat Major\, Op. 7\, No 1\nPraeludium B Minor\, Op. 28\, No 6\n\n7. Improvisation\, Symphonic Final \nAbout the Artist:\nMichał Szostak studied organ playing and improvisation at the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw\, Poland\, and at the Pontificio Istituto Ambrosiano di Musica Sacra in Milan\, Italy. In February 2019\, he obtained an academic degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Organ at the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music\, in the class of Andrzej Chorosiński. He regularly participates in master classes on organ works and liturgical music. He has performed in Europe\, North America and Africa: Belgium\, Canada\, Denmark\, Great Britain\, France\, Germany\, Italy\, Nigeria\, Poland\, Ukraine\, and the USA. His articles have appeared in Britain’s “The Organ”\, and America’s “The Diapason” and “The Vox Humana”. Since 2013 he has been a member of The Royal College of Organists\, England. \nA message from Dr. Szostak:\nIn planning my international concert tours I always look for interesting instruments. I want to be able to feel the whisper of the past and the shadow of people and their cultural achievements. Even the deepest research and the greatest books are not able to give us as much as we can take from real contact with the historical artifacts. My first contact with Erben organ in NYC was via Internet\, but from the first moment I saw a beautiful example of my searching goals: a magnificent organ in beautiful building – with great history in each detail. When I read about the actions which are focused on restoring this beautiful machine with soul\, I wanted to help in this uneasy process. I know – from the other perspective – how hard it is to gain attention and funds on projects like this. I hope that together we can put a small brick in this huge project and be part of a community of people who are sensitive for the most valuable cultural works like the Erben organ. \nPolish: \nPlanując moje miedzynarodowe koncerty\, zawsze poszukuję interesujących instrumentów. O ile to możliwe\, chcę móc poczuć szept przeszłości i zobaczyć cień minionych pokoleń i ich kulturowych osiągnięć. Mój pierwszy kontakt z organami Erbena w NYC nastąpił dzięki Internetowi\, jednakże od pierwszej chwili zobaczyłem wspaniały przykład celu\, jaki mi przyświeca: niesamowite organy w przepięknym wnętrzu – ze wspaniałą historią w każdym detalu. Kiedy przeczytałem o działaniach zmierzających do restauracji tej wspaniałej maszyny z duszą\, chciałem pomóc w tym niełatwym procesie. Doskonale wiem – z innej perspektywy – jak trudno jest skupić uwagę otoczenia i zdobyć fundusze na taki projekt. Ufam\, że wspólnie uda nam się dołożyć choćby małą cegiełkę w tym ogromnym projekcie i być częścią społeczności ludzi wrażliwych na najbardziej wartościowe dzieła kultury\, jakim bez wątpienia są organy Erbena.

DESCRIPTION:One Night Only! \nGet Tickets Here >> http://bit.ly/fantini22\nFantini Futuro is an electronic opera by Ben Neill for the Mutantrumpet\, his self-designed electro-acoustic instrument\, countertenor\, Baroque keyboards\, and interactive video projections. The immersive piece is based on the music and life of early Baroque trumpeter/composer Girolamo Fantini\, who was responsible for bringing the trumpet indoors from the hunt and the battlefield to the realm of art music. Using an array of interactive technologies\, Fantini is depicted as a traveler through space and time through a synthesis of early music\, minimalism\, and digital media performance. Fantini’s translocation of the trumpet from outside to inside is mirrored and reimagined by Neill’s Mutantrumpet\, which extends the acoustic instrument into the virtual realm. \nNeill joins forces with NYC early music ensemble ARTEK for this production; countertenor Ryland Angel performs the vocal part\, and both the 1868 Henry Erben organ and the 1859 Hall & Labagh chancel organ will be played by Gwendolyn Toth\, ARTEK’s Artistic Director\, who is recognized as one of America’s leading performers on early keyboard instruments. Fantini Futuro was awarded a New York State Council on the Arts grant in Film and New Media in 2022. A 2020 demonstration video of the Mutantrumpet V4 which made its debut in Fantini Futuro received over 800\,000 views on social media and was shared thousands of times. \nTICKETS: http://bit.ly/fantini22\n \n\n\nFantini was a musical celebrity in his time\, and his magnum opus includes the outdoor music written for trumpet alone\, as well as the indoor pieces with keyboards. He pioneered the use of mutes to expand the dynamic range of the instrument for indoor use along with numerous other playing techniques\, mirroring Neill’s focus on timbral manipulation. Fantini Futuro transforms Fantini’s material both compositionally and in real time during the performance. The work draws connections between the dynamic energy of early Baroque musical and architectural vocabularies and minimalist patterns and processes\, reinterpreting them through current techniques of live sampling\, spatialization\, and interactive visual media. The improvisatory quality of the piece references the original performance practice of music in Fantini’s era using futuristic technologies. The Italian texts are taken from poems written in tribute to Fantini and reflect on his unique ability to “tightly tune\, with noble art\, the warlike strains to the softer songs.” \nThe visual component is comprised of architectural imagery\, artworks\, and environmental video from places where Fantini lived and performed. The material was captured by Neill during two Visiting Artist Residencies at the American Academy in Rome. The animated images are controlled live from Neill’s Mutantrumpet\, situating the performers in virtual sets created from the historical elements. Fantini Futuro is directed by Obie award winning director Bob McGrath of Ridge Theater\, with whom Neill collaborated on the 2010 Persephone at the BAM Next Wave Festival. \n \nTICKETS: http://bit.ly/fantini22\nThis performance is a fundraiser for Friends of the Erben Organ (“FREO”). FREO is a non-profit dedicated to the restoration\, preservation\, and presentation of the 1868 Erben organ through concerts and educational programs. For more info: http://erbenorgan.org
