First Loves
Tim Fain, violin
Robert Koenig, piano

First Loves is a collection of quintessential violin masterpieces which first inspired me to be a violinist. Includes showpieces by Rachmaninoff, Sarasate, Wieniawski, and more, plus “Swan Remix,” my own arrangement of themes from Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.
As a kid, I was surrounded by classical, pop, rock, jazz, film and contemporary concert music – finding a balance of old and new music is still very important to me. Many of the works on First Loves are the ones that drew me in as a child – Rachmaninoff, Sarasate, and Wieniawski, arrangements by Heifetz, and Kreisler – and remain profoundly relevant today. I’ve also included “Swan Remix,” my own arrangement of themes from Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake, which I made after my work on-camera and on the soundtrack of the film Black Swan. Each track is dedicated to someone who inspired me or made it possible for me to be the person and the artist that I am today. My hope is that First Loves will inspire others, young and old, to fall in love with the violin as I did.

Swan Remix - P. I. Tchaikovsky/Tim Fain

A collaboration with guitarist Giovanni Piacentini, this EP was recorded during the Covid-19 pandemic with both of us playing/recording our parts in separate states across the country. The title work, written by Piacentini refers, in a metaphorical way, to a kind of hallucination where we wander through a magical space with an epicurean abandon simply rejoicing in pleasure and instant euphoria, free and without any kind of remorse or sense of guilt. Also features an version of my own composition Resonance, arranged for violin and guitar, and Rachmaninoff’s Vocalise.

EMBC (pronounced embassy) is Emergent Moments of Beauty and Connection

We're a creative studio lab focused on artistic contemplative experiences that promote healing and renewal.
By harnessing the power of interdisciplinary creativity we combine music, art and emerging technologies to create multisensory aesthetic experiences of wonder. 
Our aim is for people to have an embodied experience where one is held in deep presence and feels connection between their mind, body, spirit, and environment.

One of our core tenets is Art is Medicine. 

Since March of 2020 we have been partnering with Mirelle Phillips of Elsewhere and Mount Sinai’s Abilities Research Center led by Dr. David Putrino to create an initiative called Frontline Strong Relief.  

Our mission for this initiative is to bring psychosocial relief to NYC frontline workers during the pandemic. 

Starting at Mount Sinai we began deploying employee Recharge Rooms — multisensory interactive environments that Mirelle and Dr. Putrino had worked on prior to the surge. These rooms are grounded in neuroscience and optimized for addressing trauma and stress recovery. 

For these rooms EMBC created custom music/sound experiences synced to different nature settings with custom lighting and aromatherapy. Our goal for the rooms are to create a feeling of immersion where each participant is held in an environment of safety, peace, and agency to choose their own healing experience from a curated list that we offer. 

To date, we have seen over 35,000 frontline doctors, nurses, and staff in now 6 hospitals in the NYC area. We now have over 10 Recharge Rooms where frontline workers participated in a study that was recently published in a top-tier peer-reviewed scientific journal.  

In a 10-15 minute session in the Recharge Room stress levels were reduced by 60%.

With our overwhelmingly positive feedback we are rapidly trying to expand rooms in several new states with hopes to have these Recharge Rooms nationwide. 

It is with great joy that we are now offering the music we created for the rooms to be shared publicly. 

The video above is a link to one of our songs called “Greenwood Butterflies”  

We hope this song helps you to find peace, rest and comfort during these challenging times. 

With gratitude and hope,

EMBC

With his adventuresome spirit and vast musical gifts, violinist Tim Fain has emerged as a mesmerizing new presence on the music scene.  The “charismatic young violinist with a matinee idol profile, strong musical instincts, and first rate chops” (Boston Globe) was most recently seen on screen and heard on the soundtrack of the new hit film Black Swan, and heard as the sound of Richard Gere’s violin in Fox Searchlight’s feature film Bee Season. Selected as one of Symphony and Strad magazines’ “Up-and-Coming Musicians,” Fain captured the Avery Fisher Career Grant  and a Young Concert Artists International Award.  As The Washington Post recently raved, “Fain has everything he needs for a first-rate career.”

He electrified audiences at debuts with the Baltimore Symphony with conductor Marin Alsop, at Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival and with the Orchestra of St. Luke’s.  He has also appeared with the Mexico City and Oxford (UK) Symphonies, Cincinnati Chamber Symphony, Brooklyn and Hague Philharmonics, and the Curtis Symphony Orchestra in a special performance at Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center.  In addition, he was the featured soloist with the Philip Glass Ensemble at Carnegie Hall in a concert version of Einstein on the Beach and continues to tour the US and Europe in a duo-recital program with Phillip Glass.

Fain appeared in recital at the Ravinia Festival, Amsterdam’s venerable Concertgebouw, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, the Kennedy Center Mexico’s Festival de Musica de Camara in San Miguel de Allende, Carnegie’s Weill Hall, California’s Carmel Mozart Society, University of Georgia, Boston’s Ives and Ringling International Festivals, San Diego Art Institute, University of California at Davis, Alice Tully Hall, the 92nd St Y, and elsewhere across the globe. His multi-media evening Portals premiered to sold-out audiences in New York, Los Angeles and at its midwestern premiere at Omaha’s KANEKO. The centerpiece of the evening is Partita for solo violin, a new work written especially for him by Philip Glass, and also features collaborations with Benjamin Millepied, Leonard Cohen, film maker Kate Hackett, and with radio personality Fred Child and pianist Nicholas Brittel appearing on screen.  

A dynamic and compelling performer in traditional works, he is also a fervent champion of 20th and 21st century composers, with a repertoire ranging widely from Beethoven and Tchaikovsky to Aaron Jay Kernis and John Corigliano; as the Los Angeles Times recently noted, his career “is based, in part, on new music and new ways of thinking about classical music.“  His provocative debut CD Arches, music for solo violin, reflects Fain’s inquisitive passion and intellect, combining old and new solo works by J.S. Bach, Fritz Kreisler, Kevin Puts, Mark O’Connor, Daniel Ott, and Randy Woolf. His new disc, River of Light (Naxos), brings the tradition of the virtuosic short piece into the present, with short works by living American composers.

He has collaborated with such luminaries as Pinchas Zukerman, Richard Goode, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Jonathan Biss, has appeared with the Mark Morris Dance Group, Seán Curran Company, and Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, and appeared onstage with the New York City Ballet, performing alongside the dancers in the acclaimed premiere of Benjamin Millepied’s “Double Aria." He has also worked with jazz pianists Billy Childs and Ethan Iverson (The Bad Plus), guitarist Rich Robinson (Black Crowes), and appeared at Jazz at Lincoln Center with singer-songwriter Rob Thomas (Matchbox 20). 

A sought-after chamber musician, Fain has performed at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, New York’s Bargemusic, Chamber Music Northwest, and the Spoleto (Italy), Bridgehampton, Santa Fe, Caramoor, Bard, Lucerne (Switzerland), “Bravo” Vail Valley, Moab, and Martha’s Vineyard Festivals. He has toured nationally with Musicians from Marlboro, and was first violinist of the Rossetti String Quartet. 

A native of Santa Monica, California, Tim Fain is a graduate of The Curtis Institute of Music, in Philadelphia, where he studied with Victor Danchenko, and The Juilliard School, where he worked with Robert Mann.  He performs on a violin made by Franceso Gobetti, Venice 1717, the “Moller,” on extended loan from Clement and Karen Arrison through the generous efforts of the Stradivari Society of Chicago.
