Sonia Wieder-Atherton, cello: Sarah Rothenberg, piano: D’Est en musique (From the East)

Music of Ravel, Rachmaninoff, Boris Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Martinů, Janáček, Bartók, Schnittke and Prokofiev

Following acclaimed sold-out performances in Paris’s Cité de la musique, Brussels and Lisbon, French-American cellist Sonia Wieder-Atherton and pianist Sarah Rothenberg bring Wieder-Atherton and filmmaker Chantal Akerman’s D’est En Musique to the US, in conjunction with a retrospective of Akerman’s films at New York’s Museum of Modern Art and screenings at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

DACAMERA joins forces with Paris’s La Philharmonie to offer this poetic and evocative interweaving of image and music, where Chantal Akerman’s scenes of eastern Europe and Russia after the fall of the Berlin Wall merge hauntingly with works of Rachmaninoff, Janáček, Chopin, Martinů, Schnittke and others. The interplay of music and image magically transports us to another place and time.
