Gil Morgenstern's Reflections Series 2011-2012 New York Season

We are proud to announce that Gill Morgenstern will be giving his second concert series at WMP Concert Hall. Last season every concert was sold out. Please if you are interested in coming to this series call in advance before his concerts are all sold out. This is what  www.reflectionsseries.com had to say

"The first season of Gil Morgenstern's Reflections Series in its new home at WMP Concert Hall was a sold-out success, beginning with a season-opening concert featuring the legendary Laurie Anderson, through performances inspired by muses as diverse as the Parisian salon and the diaspora, and concluding with Schoenberg's beautiful and intense Verklärte Nacht.

The New York Times
described Gil Morgenstern as a, "brilliant artist," while New York magazine called Reflections, an "illuminating annual series."

Through its unique contextualization of historical artistic styles and events of their time period, Reflections Series programming entertains and enlightens the 21st century audience. Using both existing and original works, and with the collaboration of a superb ensemble of creative and performing artists representing all art forms, Reflections programs present works that both reflect upon one another and invite the audience to reflect anew on universal themes. The Reflections Series during the 2011-2012 season will also presented in Miami, Philadelphia, Boston and at An Appalachian Summer Festival in Boone, North Carolina; and in various cities throughout Italy, France, and England.

WMP Concert Hall is an intimate venue, ideally suited to Gil Morgenstern's innovative approach to programming. New York magazine describes it as, "a miniature version of a European aristocrat's music room, complete with gilt mirrors, chandelier, and lyre-back chairs."

We hope you will mark your calendars now, and join us again next season!"

Today at 31 E 28th st

In our workshop the work was completed on the Strad and the Amati is still with the top off. A new sound post patch is being fitted. The Strad had her top put back on and sounds absolutely amazing. The owner of the Strad is very happy. We had a very successful "Strad for Lunch" concert featuring a string trio. This was a beautiful group. They played  pieces by Dohnanyi and a composer from Brooklyn, NY Mazzolli. Today  Gostrings received some awesome Tonareli cello shaped cases in a variety of colors,  Mint green, black, cherry red and our ever popular pink! I think the pink cases will only be here for a week,  they are our fastest selling cases at Gostrings.
