Step into the world of Music and Money, a storytelling concert where Pavel Timofeevsky and the brilliant soprano Nadia Sychuk bring to life the financial struggles and triumphs of history’s greatest composers. This isn’t just a concert—it’s a journey through the real lives behind the music, where art and survival clashed in unexpected ways.

Each story comes to life through piano performances by Pavel and breathtaking vocal numbers by Nadia, painting vivid scenes from the lives of the world’s most iconic composers. Hear how Handel became a musical entrepreneur in London, while Bach found a more modest path within the church. Follow Mozart, who despite his genius lived hand-to-mouth, alongside Salieri, who mastered the court’s favor.

With champagne in hand, experience Rossini’s savvy rise to wealth, Beethoven’s struggle for independence, and Verdi’s powerful bond with his public. From Verdi’s bold appeal to the masses to Wagner’s reliance on royal support, each musical pairing reveals the financial battles that defined their art.

Join us for an unforgettable evening where music and storytelling combine.
