The program "Virtuoso Journey" offers a musical journey through the centuries and showcases the virtuosity of both instruments in all their facets.
The journey begins with Bach and his inventions, jewels of clarity and precision in which counterpoint becomes a brilliant playground for the agility and interplay of the performers. It continues with Handel's famous Passacaglia, which brings the grandeur of the Baroque to life: a persistent theme that develops, variation after variation, into a veritable monument of sound. Under Mozart's pen, the exchange shines in a combination of grace and technical ease in a witty dialogue. With Glière's 8 pieces, the technical demonstration is then accompanied by gentleness and lyricism, with each note revealing the subtlety of the timbres and the subtlety of the dialogue. Sibelius's Canon, on the other hand, unfolds a more internal virtuosity, composed of millimeter-precise precision and floating atmospheres. This is followed by Kodaly's Duo op. 7, which regularly brings the stage to a boil: folk rhythms, striking contrasts, and dazzling passages follow one another, putting the musicians' endurance and creativity to the test. Piazzolla's Libertango forms the crowning finale of this journey, in which virtuosity becomes dance, passion, and freedom, sealing the perfect union between technical mastery and emotional intensity.
An impressive journey in which each stage shows how virtuosity reinvents itself over time to serve the art of musical dialogue.
