SUMMARY:Faculty Artist Recital: Dmitry Rachmanov\, Piano
DESCRIPTION:CSUN Music – Faculty Artist\nDr. Dmitry Rachmanov\, piano\n\n\n\n\nThis eclectic program brings together a rich tapestry of musical voices\, beginning with Six Bagatelles\, Op. 126\, Beethoven’s final published work for solo piano. Though modestly titled “bagatelles” — a term suggesting triviality — these miniatures are anything but. They mark a profound turning point\, anticipating the expressive intimacy of the Romantic character piece later perfected by composers like Chopin\, Schubert\, and Schumann. \nThe program continues with a selection of Chopin Etudes — masterpieces that seamlessly blend virtuosic brilliance with poetic depth\, elevating technical studies into concert hall staples. \nWe then turn to early 20th-century Russia\, exploring the contrasting worlds of Alexander Scriabin and Sergei Rachmaninoff — classmates\, rivals\, and two of the most influential voices of their time. Their works reveal diverging paths: Scriabin’s mysticism and harmonic daring set against Rachmaninoff’s sweeping lyricism and structural clarity. \nFinally\, the program highlights two extraordinary yet underrecognized women composers from Russia and Ukraine: Varvara Gaigerova and Bogdana Filz. Their distinctive voices offer a compelling glimpse into the evolving musical traditions of the Soviet and post-Soviet eras. \n\n \n\n\n\nParking via Kiosks in Lot B1 \nTICKETS: $10 to $22
