Celebrate the release of Alyosha, the fourth studio album by The Dust of Suns Ensemble, with a special live performance at The Museum of Russian Art.
Performed in the heart of TMORA’s Main Gallery, Alyosha is a collection of original chamber works that blend the nostalgia of French café traditions, the elegance of classical character pieces, and the evocative atmosphere of cinematic scores. Richly melodic and deeply expressive, these intimate compositions invite listeners into dreamlike musical landscapes filled with whimsy, romance, and quiet mystery.
The evening features a complete performance of Alyosha, along with selected favorites from the ensemble’s repertoire.
