Description
"I must believe that my music is made for Belgians above all, for never have I enjoyed such a success ...I feel giddy and joyful, such as I have not managed to feel for a long time...It seems to me that I shall work with greater confidence in future."
That's Ernest Chausson, savoring the success of his Concerto for Violin, Piano, and String Quartet, Op. 21. Quite a departure from the invariably-depressed composer! From the very beginning, the Heifetz Institute has been devoted to helping our students - each and every last one of them brimming with ability - realize their full artistic potential. As our Founder Daniel Heifetz explains in this introduction, the same could be said for the composers whose music they play. With the able assistance of the "Heifetz Classical Band," made up of former Heifetz Institute students Marc Ramirez and Olivia Hajioff, violist Sel Kardan, cellist Douglas Poplin, and pianist Micah Yui, Daniel introduces and then performs the third movement "Grave" from the Concerto. In concert at the Banneker-Douglass Museum in Annapolis in the summer of 1999.
