SPRINGVALE — Russian/American virtuosos Sergey Antonov and Ilya Kazantsev have performed in some of the world’s greatest concert halls including Moscow’s Rachmaninoff Hall and St. Petersburg’s Philharmonia Recital Hall and on Saturday, March 23, they will perform once again at the Sanford-Springvale Historical Museum in Springvale.

Both were child prodigies having entered Tchaikovsky State Conservatory in Moscow before the age of 10.

Antonov was a pupil of and toured Europe with the late legendary cellist Mstislav Rostropovich.  He was one of the youngest cellists ever to win a gold medal at the International Tchaikovsky Competition.

While still a youth, Kazantsev won first prize at the Nikolai Rubinstein International Competition in Paris.  His debut recital at Carnegie Hall was sold out.

Their program this year at the Sanford-Springvale Historical Museum will include music for cello and piano by Carl Maria Von Weber, Johannes Brahms and Camillo Schumann.  In addition, Kazantsev will perform the Spanish Rapsodie by Franz Liszt.

For the concert, doors will open at 6:45 p.m. with the show starting at 7:30 p.m.

The Sanford-Springvale Historical Museum is at 505 Main St. in Springvale.
