The play of colours

The play of colours

 

This programme, designed around key works from the contemporary repertoire, promises forays into the richly varied world of etudes and preludes. Fanny Azzuro, winner of the prize for the best performance of a contemporary work by Richard Dubugnon at the Piano Campus competition, takes up this piece in the middle of the programme. One of the works in her repertoire is also Ligeti's famous Fanfares etude, full of rhythmic ardour. A nod to the world of jazz with Gershwin and Bruno Mantovani's Jazz connotation, recalling the world of improvisation and the great spontaneity that flows from it.

Fanny Azzuro joins actress Brigitte Fossey for a concert-reading on the theme of The Night this saturday April 19th at 8pm in Lauzun (FR).

Night is one of the strongest themes of Romanticism. Indeed, this fascination with the night is linked to a love of mystery and dreams. At night, all unreal visions can take hold, and all the evils of the day can be forgotten. Musset's Nuits series is a case in point. Night can also be associated with a symbol of the decline of human life. In this case, twilight represents the last sighs of existence. This is what Victor Hugo describes in Soleils couchants. It's also this nostalgic beauty that Baudelaire brings to life in his poem Harmonie du soir. Many 19th-century composers were interested in the theme of night, notably Schumann with some of his Kinderszenen, Chopin and his Nocturnes, Clara Schumann with her Soirées musicales... A sparkling, touching nocturnal world.
