About The Event

Romanian Cultural Institute in New York and ISVOR Cultural Association in Bucharest are pleased to launch a new online series, titled “7 eMotions”, which delves into the complicated inner lives of artists with the aim to reveal how their rich panoply of feelings is turned into timeless works of art. The author and cultural journalist Ioana Bâldea Constantinescu and seven contemporary Romanian composers explore seven powerful human affects that define our psychological life and inspire our creativity: disgust, anger, sadness, surprise, contempt, joy, and fear.

The first episode, an original composition by Andrei Petrache with Raluca Stratulat on violin, deals with the irrepressible feeling of disgust.

Watch on our Facebook, YouTube, IG and Website  on Wednesday, September 7, 2 p.m. EST or any time later.
