“East of the River offers an incredible range and depth in their music … eclectic, emotional, educational, exquisite, and most importantly, enjoyable!” – Gary Viebranz, Penn State Erie’s ‘Logan Series’ presenter
About East of the River
East of the River was founded by internationally renowned recorder players Nina Stern and Daphna Mor. They are known for exploring haunting and virtuosic melodies from the traditional repertoires of the Balkans, Armenia and the Middle East, as well as gems of the Medieval European classical repertory. The music is arranged and interpreted by musicians whose musical backgrounds include Classical, World music and Jazz. Together they create the unique blend that is East of the River. The members of the ensemble have separately recorded and performed with such artists as Yo Yo Ma, Philip Glass, Jordi Savall, Sting, Natalie Merchant, Aerosmith, Simon Shaheen, Glen Velez and many others.
