Romanian Piano Trio – recital at the Romanian Athenaeum
Violinist Alexandru Tomescu talked to us about
this programme:
‘It is an extremely affordable programme that
contains famous works, which even I crave for listening with great pleasure
once again. I am talking about Camille’s
Saint-Saens Swan, which is going to be
performed by my colleagues Razvan Suma and Horia Mihail, following
Handel-Halvorsen’s Passacaglia or
Piazzolla’s Seasons at Buenos Aires.
I think this is a summer concert for the beginning of September, which will be
very enjoyable for the
The idea of organizing such musicales in summer, when concert activity is less intense, is excellent. I would say that it is a step towards aligning the situation in our music, because abroad, these kinds of festivals have taken place for many years now and already enjoy a great tradition. In my opinion it was high time for someone to take such an initiative in our country’.
