Thracian Solstice Ritual with my music

On June 21st at sunrise, my music accompanied for the third time in a row the restored Thracian Solstice Ritual at the Kabyle Sanctuary. The music, commissioned by the Yambol History Museum, accompanies the liturgy. I attended as invited artist of the Yambol Days Festival, where I also performed a concert on June 20th with baritone Jean-Pierre Couturier.

On June 11, 2019, I played at Dora Lavoratore’s funeral at Missione Maria Ausiliatrice. One of the founders of the community, Lavoratore’s celebration comprised Fauré’s Requiem among other musical selections. Special thanks to the musicians with whom I shared this inspiring experience!
