Ekstasis Duo

Ekstasis: “The experience of standing outside of oneself.”

Music that lifts the spirit can be intensely joyful, profoundly moving, and unforgettable. Ekstasis is committed to creating juxtapositions and similarities through daring programming. Ekstasis thrives on the contrast, intensity, and passion. This duo electrifies audiences and excites their emotions. 

Natasha Farny and Eliran Avni met as students years ago at Juilliard. After some recent performances in New York City and upstate New York, the two decided to embark on a new mission: to celebrate masterpieces as well as several jewels of lesser-known works.

The duo will tell a story, ruminate on the human condition, and create an atmosphere through solo works alternating with chamber music. The duo occasionally expands to include friends and multimedia, such as readings, video, and visual art. The show is produced by Richard Lissemore. Experience the intense performance of Ekstasis in concert at the Lily Dale Auditorium.
