About our Program:
Our journey begins with Simon Laks’s Trois Pièces de concert, a work we feel privileged to bring to the stage. Judith reconstructed this piece for violin and piano, uncovering a lost gem that reflects the vibrant artistic world of interwar Paris. Laks’s ability to merge tradition with innovation and resilience in the face of unimaginable adversity is deeply moving.
Ravel’s music is, of course, central to this program. His Sonata for Violin and Piano has been a cornerstone of our repertoire for years, and we love sharing its incredible textures, jazz-inspired rhythms, and heartfelt lyricism. To close, we’ll bring you Ravel’s Tzigane, a fiery and virtuosic showpiece that’s as exhilarating to perform as it is to hear.
The luminous Louange à l’Éternité de Jésus from Olivier Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time is another special work for us. It’s a piece that transcends time and place, reminding us of music’s ability to provide solace and hope, even in the darkest circumstances.
In the second half, we return to Beethoven’s Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 10, Op. 96, his final violin sonata. Its delicate balance of lyricism and virtuosity feels like a perfect bridge between Beethoven’s era and the world of Ravel and his contemporaries.
This program is more than just a concert for us. It’s a celebration of resilience, artistry, and the shared stories that connect us all. We would love for you to join us for this meaningful journey through some of our favorite works.
