I will be the featured composer on Gene Pritsker’s Sky Vault Chamber Series. This concert will be streamed live as well.
Join composer and soprano, Stephanie Susberich, for an intimate evening of music at her concert series salon, Next Sounds. Summer Serenata is a concert dedicated to the people of New York, and a tribute to a summer well-spent.
Accompanied by pianist Karen Xie, Stephanie will offer beautiful bel canto arias and original contemporary art songs from her song cycle, Songs of Juana Borrero, and her doctoral dissertation in music composition. The evening offers a collage of sounds, with songs imbued with romance, redemption, and renewal, from classical to contemporary works. This is her send off concert before she returns to Kansas City to complete the last semester of classes for her doctorate in music composition, and she will sing you beautiful tunes to close out this most special summer. Enjoy a selection of spirits in a private, boutique setting in NYC's downtown while being serenaded with some of history's most beautiful music delivered by a living composer, alongside her own bewitchingly crafted vocal compositions. A night to remember!
Stephanie Susberich is a composer and vocalist whose work has been premiered by the Etchings Festival, International Contemporary Ensemble, and Radius Ensemble, among others. She has performed original work as well as classical arias and art songs in venues as diverse as L.A.'s Viper Room to NYU’s Kimmel Center. Stephanie holds a BA from New York University, an MM in classical vocal performance (New Jersey City University), a graduate diploma in composition (Longy School of Music) and an MA in composition from Tufts University. She is currently entering the last year of her doctorate in music composition at the University of Missouri Kansas City, where she served as a graduate teaching assistant, instructing undergraduate composers for three semesters. She also worked as a soloist for the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Kansas City. Her music combines a singer's love of melody and narrative with a composer's fascination with timbral experimentation and beauty.
I am now the artistic director of a concert series featuring classical and new music. Our inaugural show is this Thursday, June 13th, in the East Village. Email or DM for address.
