FFRCC Classical Music gets National Review Attention

Good fame is pretty good, but often we settle even for some bad fame... but this National Review article about the FFRCC (Foundation for the Revival of Classical Culture Review) is pretty good. The season is almost over at Foundation for the Revival of Classical Culture but check out this review of our concert of June 2nd.... in NYC. Don't worry, we will do it again in late September. A great National Review- review for baritone Frank Mathis, and pianist Jon DePeri, and don't forget the FFRCC Youth chorus performed too. And we also have the FFRCC summer camp coming up in lower Manhattan NYC... so if you have kids 11 years old plus, who can get into some choral singing- science and drama... sign up.

One of the most extraordinary song cycles ever composed. Schubert’s Winterreise is astounding, poetic, beautiful and contrary to the commonly held belief that it’s merely a series of songs about a man’s journey through love found and lost, highly political.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS:

FRANK MATHIS, baritone was a soloist in the Roland Hayes Life of Christ song cycle performed at Carnegie Hall in 2016. He studied with Antonella Banaudi, among others. He has directed choruses and voice training in US and Germany. He has been a leading part of a program to expose public school children in NYC, Bronx, Harlem and Brooklyn to classical music and choral singing, and will direct the Foundation's 2018 summer music program.
