BELMONT LIBRARY HOSTS CHAMBER MUSIC CONCERT
Lexington Minuteman, MA
March 30 2006
Pianist Levon Hovsepian and cellist Arkady Beletsky will present
an afternoon concert of chamber music at 2 p.m. Sunday, April 2,
at the Belmont Public Library, 336 Concord Ave. The free concert,
which will be held in the Assembly Room, is sponsored by the Friends
of the Library as part of the Music on Sunday series.
Hovsepian and Beletsky, who are both on the faculty of the Indian Hill
Music Center in Littleton, will perform works by Bach, Beethoven,
Brahms, Arutunian, Prokofiev, and Popper. Hovsepian also teaches at
the Powers Music School in Belmont.
Both Hovsepian and Beletsky began performing professionally as
children and achieved performing careers overseas before moving to
the Boston area. A graduate of the Komitas Conservatory in Soviet
Armenia, Hovsepian performed throughout Armenia, Estonia and Moldova
and appeared as a soloist with the Yerevan Symphony Orchestra and
on Armenian national television. After attracting major critical
attention in Armenia, he was invited to study at the Longy School
of Music in Cambridge. He made his New York debut in 1994 and became
known for his compelling interpretive style and expansive technique.
He was a prize winner at the Arlington Concerto Competition and has
appeared as a soloist with the Salem Philharmonic Orchestra, the New
England Philharmonic Orchestra, WGBH radio, and Moscow Radio.
Beletsky was born in Kiev, Ukraine and completed his master's degree in
music at the Gnesin Institute of Music in Moscow. In 1983 he founded
the Renaissance Chamber Ensemble, which rose to prominence as one of
the most prolific and well-regarded chamber groups in pre-Perestroika
Russia, headlining over 1,000 concerts throughout the 15 republics
of the Soviet Union. In 1989 Beletsky emigrated to the U.S. with his
family. Since then, he has performed solo, chamber and orchestral work
at Jordan Hall, Sanders Theater and Mechanics Hall, has participated
in numerous music festivals, and has made a live appearance on WGBH's
"Morning Pro Musica."
