Kismet: Vignettes for violin and piano

This collection of over 10 new works, world premiers and associated performances was born from COVID inactivity, where Violinist Vov Dylan and Composer Elena Kats-Chernin found time to grow from musical friends to musical collaborators and in the process delving into the vast array of music that Elena has composed.

Renowned Australian Pianist Clemens Leske joined the project and together with Vov and Elena, a program of delightful, personal, playful and extremely musical vignettes was curated.

During the 2021 lockdowns, Vov, Clem and numerous other guest performers were able to record these works. They have been recorded in extreme high definition and will be the first collection of works by an Australian Composer to be released in this format.

This performance is the world debut, first public performances of all these works.

The event will be hosted and introduced by Elena Kats Chernin

The performances will be by: Vov Dylan, Clemens Leske with guest artist Victoria Jacono-Gilmovich
