The Foundation for the Revival of Classical is a non-profit, 501(3)c foundation.  

We at the Foundation for the Revival of Classical Culture believe that all students should have the chance to know what a Classical culture is. It is comprised of the most inspired expressions, in whatever medium, of human creativity from all over the world. This is the common heritage of all of us, of all of humanity; it belongs to the whole human race, but is multifaceted, reflecting the unique, specific changes in thought that propel the human race forward. And, contrary to its "bad press", Classical culture is always interesting, never boring!!

The consistent practice of the highest form of culture--be it through music, literature or science--is the best way to develop the intellectual and moral capabilities of a person, especially the young.  We believe that the practice of great art, develops the creative faculties essential to produce future discoveries in the sciences. We believe that this applies to all people, all over the world, regardless of background.

ESCRIPTION

The Music at St Veronica's season is back in full swing! Join us for an incredible night of music performed by a full orchestra conducted by Benjamin Grow.

As music director of Tom Cipullo's acclaimed opera Glory Denied in Philadelphia, Grow was said to have "expertly coached the singers and led the orchestra" (Broad Street Review), and his "fine detailing delivered the ferocious power of this score" (Huffington Post), in what The Philadelphia Inquirer said was the "most unforgettable opera" of the year.

The Program:

Sense of Place

Felix Mendelssohn- The Hebrides (Fingal's Cave) Overture

— Intermission—

Antonin Dvorak- Czech Suite

Felix Mendelssohn- Symphony No. 4 "Italian"

History of the Concert Series:

The Church of St. Veronica, a 130 year-old Catholic church on Christopher Street, closed in July of 2017 due to low-attendance at Sunday masses. When WestView News publisher George Capsis received a letter from one of his readers informing him of the fact, he knew something had to be done.

Rather than see the church closing as another casualty of the rapidly "disappearing Village", Capsis believed that this was an opportunity to bring the community together. The West Village is a highly desirable area in New York city because of its small-town neighborhood feel (hence "The Village") in one of the biggest metropoles in the world. That neighborhood feel, however, is at risk as property values skyrocket and condominiums come to replace the iconic brownstones. Most troubling to Capsis, a nonagenarian himself, was seeing his fellow senior citizens (who have remained in the West Village thanks to rent-stabilized apartments) excluded from enjoying the community they built. For that reason, WestView News has been hosting classical music concerts at the Church of St. Veronica since November of 2017. This next concert will the first concert of the new season and we look forward to seeing our neighbors there, young, old and everyone in-between.

Petersburg, for a Classical NY Concert

The Foundation for the Revival of Classical Culture & Gotham Arts invite you to join us for a performance of: Petersburg, Song Cycle by Georgy Sviridov Selection of lieder by Robert Schumann, Sergei Rachmaninoff, et al. TIME: Friday, November 17, 8PM PLACE: Bruno Walter Auditorium at Lincoln Center (111 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10023) TICKETS: $25 in advance, $30 at the door Schöne Wiege meiner Leiden, Schönes Grabmal meiner Ruh', Schöne Stadt, wir müssen scheiden, - Lebe wohl! ruf' ich dir zu. "Beautiful cradle of my sorrows, Beautiful tombstone of my peace, Beautiful city, we must part. Farewell, I cry to you." -Heinrich Heine Pianist Jonathan DePeri and Baritone Frank Mathis Two American musicians, pianist Jonathan DePeri and baritone Frank Mathis, resurrect the rarely performed Russian song-cycle Petersburg, prompting reflection upon 100 years of Russian-American cultural exchange, and the future of music. Alexander Blok 1880-1921 Petersburg, a song cycle by Georgy Sviridov, one of Russia's most important composers in the last half of the 20th century, is a setting of nine poems by Alexander Blok. Blok, who lived from 1880 to 1921, is often called a "Symbolist"poet, as Sviridov is called a "neo-Romantic" composer. These terms are virtually useless, especially to the listener who has the opportunity to experience this music for the first time, filled with all possible as well no particular expectations. Georgy Sviridov 1915-1998 More than anything else, Petersburg recalls the approach to "the short story as music" that Franz Schubert's 24-song cycle, Winterreise, and several of Robert Schumann's and Johannes Brahms' song cycles and even individual songs had also advanced. Sviridov's settings of Blok's poems are a jarring "throwback" to the lieder song cycle- a set of poems. Beethoven invented this idea with his op. 98, An die ferne Geliebte; Brahms' Vier ernste Gesänge, (Four Serious Songs, op 121), his last composition, is sometimes thought of as the final word in the genre. Sviridov and Blok, in other words, dared to write beautifully about tragedy, to reject the pervasive culture of non musical ugliness, and to uplift the audience of both the present and the future for whom the songs were composed. This was a courageous act. Speaking in honor of the poet Robert Frost in October of 1963, 27 days before he himself would be assassinated, President John F. Kennedy said: "Strength takes many forms, and the most obvious forms are not always the most significant. The men who create power make an indispensable contribution to the Nation's greatness, but the men who question power make a contribution just as indispensable, especially when that questioning is disinterested, for they determine whether we use power or power uses us.... "The artist, however faithful to his personal vision of reality, becomes the last champion of the individual mind and sensibility against an intrusive society and an officious state. The great artist is thus a solitary figure. He has, as Frost said, a lover's quarrel with the world. In pursuing his perceptions of reality, he must often sail against the currents of his time. This is not a popular role. If Robert Frost was much honored in his lifetime, it was because a good many preferred to ignore his darker truths. Yet in retrospect, we see how the artist's fidelity has strengthened the fibre of our national life." In performing Petersburg and the other selections in this concert Program, the two American artists hope that the humanity clearly portrayed in these Russian songs, the dialogue of over a century among poets, and musicians from Europe, Russia and the United States, might prompt the replication of the same spirit of Beauty and purpose that produced them.
