KASHPEROVA 150th ANNIVERSARY
A CONCERT FOR PEACE

A fund-raising concert in aid of UNICEF UKRAINE APPEAL
with music by long-lost composer Leokadiya Kashperova
on her 150th birthday

LEOKADIYA KASHPEROVA (1872 – 1940)
16th May 2022 marks the 150th anniversary of the newly-discovered Romantic composer Leokadiya Kashperova.
Her name had existed solely in a historic footnote as Stravinsky’s piano teacher but the research of Dr. Graham Griffiths has uncovered her role as a significant composer
in her own right.

Pre-concert presentation by Dr. Graham Griffiths
Maria Zachariadou – Cello
Richard Leach – Piano
Gabriella Di Laccio – Soprano

UK première of Kashperova’s Cello Sonata No.2 in E minor.
