First Time in Berlin & Playing @Berlin Philharmonie!!!

12/7/2018

0 Comments

 
I need to tell you all about my trip to Berlin in late Sept., early October 2018! It was my first time visiting Berlin (Germany) and I had an absolutely great experience, made new friends, performed at 3 totally different venues in one week: 1) a salon concert series in a private home, 2) at the Van Gogh Piano Bar (lol) and also at.... guess where? 3) The Berlin Philharmonie!!!

Performing at the Berlin Philharmonie was a childhood dream of mine that came true on October 3rd, 2018! Growing up I was listening to many many radio stations in Bulgaria broadcasting live performances from this legendary venue and having the opportunity to be there and perform is certainly very special to me! The concert was organized and presented by the Enlightened Piano Radio Awards where I was a special guest artist from New York at the awards ceremony. Here are beautiful photos from the event taken by the talented Berlin based photographer Alexander Baumbach:
Here is also a YouTube link with highlights from the Award Ceremony, I appear at 3:10, check it out and also on the video you can see my dress way better ;)

Here are some more photos from October 2nd, 2018 at the Van Gogh Piano Bar, lol what I was doing the night before my Berlin Philharmonic debut - having fun with friends and playing at the bar :D

On September 30th, 2018 I performed at Hauskonzert Berlin - an intimate salon concert series in Berlin where I did a full solo recital. I had two grand pianos on site so I decided to play on both of them, that's why here in the pictures you will see me play on different sides of the stage :) I loved how I was surrounded by art works! Click HERE to see photos. When you click, go to Konzerte, then click on 2018, then go to September and you will see me there :)

Before and between the concert, I also had a chance to visit the Steinway Gallery in Berlin as well as Bechstein's headquarters (also in Berlin). I had the opportunity to play on amazing world class instruments D concert size grand pianos! Here is a fun Instagram video while I was practicing a piece written by Steve Holtje (Gymnopedie No. 1)

And here are photos from the piano galleries:
Bechstein had a very special warm welcome for me at their headquarters! They took this video of me while practicing and also featured me on their web site and social media with fans all over the world, promoting my original composition Rhythmic Movement:
They decided to take the videos and photos totally out of the blue, and that was my only tourist like day so I had no make up and wasn't dressed up lol Enjoy seeing a more natural Tania here :) To see me on Bechstein's official web site, please click HERE

Making My Film Debut in New York. Next stop - Hollywood :D

8/30/2018

Taking part in the making of a movie about classical music :)

So this happened! :) It was last minute, totally out of the blue, totally unexpected and the only day I happened to be available was the day - this past Monday August 27th, 2018 :) !!! So... it was meant to be: 

Ok, so I was invited to take part in Nicole "Nick" Alexander's film based on Terrence McNally’s Master Class (the life of Maria Callas), featuring MET opera star Isabel Leonard as Maria Callas. Me: I was a Julliard girl, opera student attending the master class. I guess I can still pass for a college girl ;) I have never done this before and they even spotlighted me and another actor - a lot of lights and umbrellas were near our faces, we had to repeat the scene 2-3 times until directors were happy. Lol but as a pianist I have attended tones of master classes so I knew how to react to all the Callas jokes. It was a lot of fun. Here is a photo of me and Isabel right after the film shooting. She had to stay longer but I already changed. Below this photo I will post more photos of my 70s outfit lol - the skirt is so not Tania skirt but it all worked out. I loved the 70s hair and make up (see more photos from the make up/hair dressing room), the earrings matching the blue top. The AC so high, it was freezing so these clothes actually ended up making me feel warm :) I will let you know when the film is out and I am supposed to receive a reel of the scene with me, so stay tuned :) my movie debut? Haha lol only in New York. The shooting was in New York (at the Engelman Recital Hall on Lexington Avenue).

The master class film scene took place at the Engelman Recital Hall on Lexington Avenue in New York, NY. More info and where to see the movie, stay tuned :)

Rhythmic Movement & Theater!

Rhythmic Movement is featured in Greenhouse Ensemble's podcast Episode 1 (Tania starts around 26:00) and she is mentioned at the end too. Remember, Rhythmic Movement was the theme for Caliban from The Tempest when Tania was working with a theater company on off Broadway few years ago. She later developed it into a full piece and it became the title of her debut album too. It was the 1st time when Tania also started officially to compose. "It is so great to be in this podcast that talks a lot about theater, photography, art, since Rhythmic Movement was a part of a theater production too" says Tania. Click HERE to go to the podcast.
