FLeischmann | ÖNDER
VARIATIONS AND MEMORIES
description
In their programme "Variations and Memories," pianist Ferhan Önder and violinist Johannes Fleischmann present works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Fazil Say, and Alfred Schnittke. Each composition is rooted in memories, whether of people, cherished places, or inherited traditions, such as sounds and musical styles passed down orally through generations. Notably, Fazil Say's 1st Violin Sonata incorporates traditional Turkish music, translating these elements impressively for violin and piano. The journey from Viennese Classicism to Neoclassicism is elegantly concluded with a film score by Alfred Schnittke.
