It is our pleasure to invite you to the concert RHAPSODIE ROUMAINE
which will take place at Concertgebouw Amsterdam,
Kleine Zaal, 6 December 2018, at 20.15
Rhapsodie Roumanie is a musical canvas for the imagination. Alongside Gabriel Fauré's passionate Piano
Quartet in C minor we present two emblematic works by the Romanian Grandmaster George Enescu, who was a prodigious student of Fauré at the Paris Conservatoire. Romanian Rhapsody No.1, Enescu's most famous composition, is reinvented in a new arrangement by Thomas Wally for piano quartet. The second work is Enescu's recently rediscovered Nocturne Ville d'Avraye for Piano Quartet, a souvenir of the composer's lifelong friendship with his student, the great Yehudy Menuhin. Another little gem of the evening is a selection of Béla Bartók's Violin Duos, which capture the unique and compelling spirit of the Romanian traditional folk music. The programme is completed by the splendid Piano Trio No.2 in C major by Johannes Brahms.
The Ensemble Raro and the Storioni Trio will transport the listener to the multi-layered world of the Romanian musical landscape, where joy and melancholy are inseparable and heaven is to be found both under the feet and over the head.
This evening concludes a concert tour which included performances in Vienna, Munich, Antwerpen, Bucharest, Tokyo and Kobe and is part of the Romanian centenary celebrations.
