Arts in the Village Presents the Daurov/Myer Duo on March 24
On Saturday, March 24,??Arts in the Village will present a performance by the Daurov/Myer Duo.??Since their formation in 2012,??cellist Adrian Daurov and pianist Spencer Myer??have explored and performed three centuries of??masterworks from the repertoire for their respective instruments, both solo and in combination. For their first appearance in the Arts in the Village series, they will be presenting works by Beethoven, Foss,??Mendelssohn, and Prokofiev.
At the age of 15, Daurov made his debut as soloist with the St. Petersburg State Symphony Orchestra in his native city. Subsequently, he earned top honors at three international competitions: Bulgaria???s 1st??International Music Competition (First Prize, 1996), the Netherlands??? Peter De Grote International Music Competition (Grand Prix, 2002), and New York City???s LISMA International Music Competition (First Prize, 2004). In 2004, he toured as a soloist with the St. Petersburg Chamber Orchestra, performing in St. Petersburg, Moscow, Warsaw, and throughout Germany and was appointed to the dual position of principal cellist and soloist with the Bayreuth Youth Festival Orchestra. In 2008, he was a featured participant in a gala Carnegie Hall concert celebrating Russia???s Independence Day. In 2012, he formed his own ensemble, the award-winning Voxare Quartet, with which he still tours.
Gold Medalist of the 2008 New Orleans International Piano Competition, Myer??has been soloist with numerous orchestras all across the United States, as well as Mexico???s Orquesta Filarm??nica de Jalisco, South Africa???s Cape Town and Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestras, and Beijing???s China National Symphony Orchestra. His recital appearances have been presented in New York City???s Weill Recital Hall, 92nd??Street Y and Steinway Hall, Philadelphia???s Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, and London???s Wigmore Hall, among many others.
