Rieth Recital Series: Solomia Soroka, violin & Philip Silver, piano

The Rieth Recital Series presents violinist Solomia Soroka and pianist Phillip Silver performing music from their newly released two-volume recording “Lost American Sonatas” on Toccata Classics. The project rediscovers powerful yet long-forgotten violin sonatas by early twentieth-century American composers, including Albert Stoessel, Clara Rogers, and Henry Schoenefeld.

Made possible by the Goshen College Presidential Award, this recording revives a vibrant chapter of American musical history. On this program, Soroka and Silver perform three of the six sonatas from the project, bringing this unjustly neglected repertoire back to the concert stage.
