Vertigo – Sounds and Instruments

Sounds and Instruments – a Unique Program for Cello and Violin

A musical journey between the warm and moving sound of period instruments and the powerful, brilliant sound of modern instruments.

Ancient Sound: works by Bach, Royer, Kiri, Haydn, and Beethoven performed on baroque violin and cello with gut strings and period bows.

Modern Sound: lyrical works by Gallier and rhythmic Latin American dances by Piazzolla and Elizondo performed on modern instruments.

The highlight of the program will be a special arrangement of the overture to Rossini’s opera The Barber of Seville—a thrilling and energetic performance for just two string instruments.

Grisha Papish — violin
Yulia Belousova — cello
