On March spring comes, and the second – just eight seasons. Petersburg violinist Marianna Vasilyeva and Hungarian violinist Antal hall – more than twenty laureates of international competitions for two – for one night perform each season for the pair. As much as double written by Antonio Vivaldi and Astor Piazzolla – with a difference of two hundred and fifty years «Red Priest” as he mockingly called, the clergy colleagues, Vivaldi bad fit into the ascetic religious framework.. And the music, wrote a vivid, full-blooded as his native Italy. “Four Seasons” – almost the first piece of music in the score where you can hear a dog barking, and, and knocks down a hurricane, and the buzz of drunken revelry
Astor Piazzolla -. Born two noisy cultures, Argentine and American (up to sixteen he also lived in Italy, only a small … in New York, in Manhattan – in rayonchike little Italy). And then I went to Buenos Aires. His “Four Seasons of Buenos Aires” – paints a picture of the hard life and spicy preport streets of the Argentine capital, dancing, of course, in the rhythm of tango. Like Vivaldi, who became a revolutionary at the time of the Italian violin music, Piazzolla changed ideas about the tango. Preserving the inherent temperament dance, he added elements of jazz and classical music.
On March centuries separated the seasons will come together in the concert of Mariana Vasileva and Antal barked.
