evening

The living legend of the piano scene, Martha Argerich is a regular visitor to Aix.

Ever youthful, she will play alongside one of her preferred partners, Renaud Capuçon, to bring us a programme that is 100% romantic : Schumann, Schubert and Strauss. A piece of intense passion, sustained by robust writing for piano, Schumann’s Sonata No. 2 was composed in one go.
Schubert’s Violin Sonata in A major known as the “Grand duo” exudes the fresh impulsivity of youth as the composer was barely twenty when he wrote it.
Finally, the smooth, generous composition of the Violin Sonata by Richard Strauss allows the sweetness of the melody to blend with the passion of the piano. An evening to remember, for all festival goers.
