Ottawa Suzuki Strings – Nurturing personal excellence, musicality, and human spirit!

Laurent C. Judith Ginsburg, Rosemarie Klimasko, Maria-Sophia P.

Laurent C. and Maria-Sophia P., two violin members of  the OSS Performance Group, Stellae Boreales,
were chosen by the Gryphon Trio, through audition, to perform at the prestigious "RISING STARS" Concert
held at St. Brigid's Centre for the Arts on July 24th. 2010.

Maria Sophia played a lovely, graceful reading of "Liebeslied" by Kreisler and and Laurent gave a technically
dazzling, superb performance of the "Caprice Basque" by Sarasate. Their accompanist, Judith Ginsburg again
joined these two young artists, after the intermission, in a beautiful, sentimental reading of the" Romance" for two
violins from "The Gadfly" by Shostakovich.

Violin teachers Elaine Klimasko (Laurent) and Rosemarie Klimasko (Maria-Sophia) are extremely proud of the
"personal excellence" achieved by their two students.
 

All participants in the RISING STARS Concert take a final bow. 

Congratulation to all these fine young artists!
