Experience Parallax, a captivating musical journey from violinist Daniela Shtereva and pianist Alexandra Carlson, winners of a 2020 Global Music Awards. This program features two American recording premieres from their acclaimed album, inspired by the “parallax effect”, the idea that perspective shifts depending on where you stand.
Blending rare and rediscovered works, this violin and piano duo explores rich musical connections across cultures, with influences from Bulgaria, Spain, Belgium, Russia, and the United States. Spanning both Romantic and Modern periods, the program includes music by Paganini, Achron, Vladigerov, Albéniz, Shchedrin, and Lekeu. Many selections are seldom performed in the U.S., including a rare Paganini-Achron piece reconstructed from an unpublished 1919 manuscript.
Recorded at the renowned Mechanics Hall in Worcester, Massachusetts, Parallax has been praised for its artistry, expressive depth, and dynamic partnership. Shtereva and Carlson bring exceptional technique and musical sensitivity to each work. Discover a performance that invites fresh perspective, celebrates cultural connections, and offers an unforgettable listening experience.
