About the Event

Asiya Korepanova, piano
Irina Muresanu, violin

Asiya Korepanova is a pianistic powerhouse hailed as a "tremendously gifted pianist who exhibits a singular affinity for Rachmaninoff’s Russian romantic idiom and possesses the blazing technique to fully realize his distinctive scores" (South Florida Classical Review), who is also highly recognized as a composer, visual artist and poet. For this performance, Korepanova will perform her own arrangement of Sergei Rachmaninoff's Cello Sonata in celebration of the composer's birthday. She will be joined by violin faculty Irina Muresanu in works by Dmitri Shostakovich and Henri Lazarof.
