Program:

• Madrigals by Bohuslav Martinu (1947)
• Moments Interrompus (Interrupted Moments) by Graziane Finzi (2012)
• Passacaglia by Georg Friederich HAENDEL & Johan Halvorsen (1720/1893)
• Duo n°1 K423 in G minor by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart(1783)

With Agnès Pyka (violin), Blandine Leider (viola)

The violin-viola duet, conceived in Austria at the end of the 18th century under the aegis of brothers Haydn and Mozart, experienced a late but fertile succession. From the perfection of Mozart’s classical writing to the innovative yet confident style of Graciane Finzi, this programme includes the rebirth of Martinu’s 1947 masterpiece.
