Oregon East Symphony to present recital
The O reg o n East
Symphony will present a
recital o f Russian sonatas
for cello and piano featur­
ing pianist Sheila Zilar and
c e llist (and OES M usic
Director) Kenneth Woods,
on Friday, November 9, at
7:30 p.m. in the Pendleton
Art Center.
The recital is part of
the OES “Symphony Cham­
ber Music Series," an annual
series o f concerts offered
to raise funds for musician
compensation. All proceeds
from the event will go to­
wards supporting orchestra
musician participation in the
orchestra.
The program opens
with Prokofiev’s lushly me­
lodic and w ickedly witty
Sonata in C Major, written
for the great Russian cellist
Mstislav Rostropovich, who
passed away this year. Next
on the program is the Sonata
in D minor, written in 1934
by Dmitri Shostakovich, a
work that combines pathos,
lyricism and humor. Finally,
the concert concludes with
one o f the greatest romantic
masterpieces for cello and
piano, the Sonata in G minor
by Sergei Rachmaninoff.
“ It seem s like the
dark sound o f the cello re­
ally spoke to the Russian
co m p o sers,” Ken Woods
recently said. “All three of
these pieces showcase both
the cello’s ability to really
sing out beautiful melodies
and the great Russian tradi­
tion o f virtuoso piano writ­
ing. In fact, all three o f these
composers were wonderful
pianists who each played
the first performance of their
sonatas. I’m so happy to be
working with Sheila on this
concert, as she’s a wonderful
collaborator and someone
who really understands this
music.”
Cellist and conduc­
tor Kenneth Woods is fast
becoming recognized as a
musician o f rare versatility,
equally at home as conduc­
tor, recitalist, chamber musi­
cian and soloist. A founding
member o f the NEA Rural
Residency Grant winning
Taliesin Trio, he has concert-
ized throughout the US and
Canada, and has also been
heard as soloist and chamber
musician throughout Europe
and New Zealand. He has
also been the cellist o f the
Masala String Quartet from
1993-1999. He was artist-
in-residence, member o f the
Eastern Piano Trio while on
the music faculty at Eastern
O regon U niversity from
1999-2002.
