Emmanuel Vukovich: "RESILIENCE" Release

Violinist Emmanuel Vukovich’s upcoming album release, “RESILIENCE,” features Zosha’s Patina and Sprung Testament. The project is inspired by the musical legacy of Béla Bartók and is in collaboration with pianist Katherine Dowling. The album includes the world premiere of "Resilient Earth"—four solo violin Caprices by American composer Sheila Silver, written for Vukovich in 2020-21— and a newly revised Sonata for violin & piano by Dinuk Wijeratne.

It also includes selections from Bartók’s Serbo-Croatian, Rumanian, and Turkish folk melodies archived at Columbia University and recently made publicly available for the first time. The album is an expression of the uniquely creative voices and artistic relationships between the collaborators involved and an exploration of how diverse musical languages build on the tradition of cross-cultural musical synthesis first pioneered by Bartók over a century ago.

The album release event will be on December 10 at 7:00pm at Eglise St. Viateur d'Outremont in Montreal. More info on the album here.
