NSC Mar27 2025 De Kenessey Microvids

STEFANIA DE KENESSEY Microvids Diana Solomon-Glover, narrator Donna Wend Freidman, piano Max Lifchitz, conductor The North/South Chamber Orchestra The New York Times has described Stefania de Kenessey’s music as “bright and full of accessible melodies, with influences from theater music and early rock.” A graduate of Yale and Princeton Universities, her works have been performed across the United States and internationally. Committed to promoting equality for women composers and musicians, Ms. de Kenessey was the founding president of the International Alliance for Women in Music. Her piece "Microvids" consists of a collection of 19 miniatures, inspired by poems written by the composer for piano and strings. Created during the pandemic, the title pays homage to Bartók’s Mikrokosmos, which the composer fondly remembers from childhood. However, the music is reimagined for contemporary audiences, featuring short pieces that are rhythmically compelling, tuneful, and emotionally uplifting. Pianist Donna Weng Friedman is the soloist for this work, while Diana Solomon-Glover narrates the poems that inspired it.
