AlekseyIgudesman has been known for reinventing the violin in numerousways, with his compositions played by violinists worldwide forseveral decades. Lucas Debargue‘s freedom in performance stemsfrom his background in jazz and composition, with his originalmusic becoming increasingly integral to his artistic expression.When these gentlemen come together, they begin with purefree improvisation. Unconfined by styles or boundaries, theycompellingly and enticingly merge their unique musical worlds.In an evening of invention and reinvention, these two greatartists perform each other‘s music. The repertoire rangesfrom Igudesman‘s hauntingly beautiful „Autumn Thoughts“ toDebargue‘s „Tango and Incantation,“ a wild musical ride thatborrows the energy of rock music without losing the sheerpianistic brilliance of his playing.Both artists also showcase works from their solo repertoires.Igudesman rocks the stage with his „Eine kleine RAPmusik“ and„Primal Vera“ from his latest book, Outside the Box. Meanwhile,Debargue takes the audience on a rhythmic journey with his highlyvirtuosic piano pieces, designed to enhance the pulse and grooveof future generations of musicians.The performance culminates in a series of inventive reinterpretations.„For A Lease,“ reminiscent of Beethoven, and „I‘mFeelin‘ Blue Danube,“ where they transform the waltz into Funk,Salsa, and Samba, highlight their creative synergy.This poetic evening, full of musical surprises, aims to illuminate abright future for classical music, one without boundaries or limits.Free Improvisation by Aleksey Igudesman & Lucas DebargueTango pour Violin et Piano by Lucas DebargueMelodie pour Violin et Piano by Lucas DebargueIncantations pour Violin et Piano by Lucas Debargue“Autumn Thoughts” 5 pieces for Violin and Piano by Aleksey Igudesman“For A Lease” for Violin & Piano by Aleksey Igudesmaninspired by Ludwig van Beethoven“I’m Feeling Blue Danube” for Violin & Piano by Aleksey Igudesmaninspired by Johann Straußhttps://www.alekseyigudesman.com/igud...
