Stas' newest video of original composition, "Mizunashi River" (River Without Water), has been released. It was composed for Hadano City in Japan, and recently premiered in Japan. 7.5 minutes feel like one breath taken, leaving you wanting to listen to it more.
The video was shot at Omote-Tanzawa Outdoor Activity Center in Hadano, Japan, where our youth group stayed 2 weeks during our Japan trip 2024.
Stas Venglevski was invited to perform in the Laureate Gala at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall on February 20th, 2025. He played his original compositions for solo about 30 minutes, as well as his original concerto "Rondo Fantasy" with Maestro Giacomo Franci and the New York Chamber Players. It was a heartfelt experience to see not only an accordion performance on the most prestigious stage in NY but also to hear Stas live at his best. His original music opened the eyes of a new audience; you could hear a pin drop from the first to the last note of his appearance. The audience was mesmerized by what they heard.
Stas Venglevski and Megumi Hada visited schools and kindergardens to introduce Instruments (Bayan and Accordion) and perform accordion music.
