A Concert for Peace at Music at Bunker Hill
A Concert for Peace at Music at Bunker Hill
Ukrainian violinist Mark Peskanov and his friends William Frampton, Julian Schwarz, and Marika Bournaki present works of Schubert, Fauré, and Ukrainian composer Valentin Silvestrov, who has fled from Ukraine following the Russian invasion. The musicians want to convey through music their desire for peace, echoing these eloquent words: “This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.” Leonard Bernstein, 1963
