Grateful for this last run of @triofadolin shows in Long Island, at Columbia University and at TheLocal in Saugerties. We are lucky to do what we do, to explore a very special slice of repertoire, and to be supported by venues and friends in the City and out.

We'll have one short show in the middle of May, and then five opportunities to see us in June -- so we'll see you soon!

See you out there!

How beautiful is this setting?

This Sunday at 3pm, Trio Fadolín makes our debut at the Concerts by the Pond series in Cold Spring Harbor, playing folk music from Armenia and Central Asia, as well as pieces by Barvinsky and our fadolínist Ljova --- and when they say "by the pond", this is the place!
We have a couple of discount codes - PM us directly.

See you!

“Hallelujah” for solo fadolín (or viola)

"I think what the world needs is a "Hallelujah" transcription for solo viola", said my dear old friend Pemi, a great violist in Montreal. I couldn't agree more.

Belated April Fools humor - Full disclosure - I don't even eat the stuff! But I hope that you'll enjoy this little "nugget" of inspiration... Coming to cello recitals everywhere! Sheet music available. https://www.ljova.com/2024/04/emergency-chicken-dance/

hi friends - I've decided to part ways with this beautiful fadolín made by Nathaniel Rowan Violins / F-hole Industries that I played everywhere 2020-2022. It has great sentimental value for me -- my album "Enter The Fadolín" was recorded on it, and, among those pieces, the "Midnight Suite" came from improvising on this instrument. More details, pictures & videos -- in the link below. Serious inquiries only -- thank you!
