We are thrilled to present one of our own musicians on stage in this intimate setting of cello and piano. Sabina and Sam’s musical journey began in 2015 at the French festival Les Estivales de Megeve where they first met and have since then shared countless musical moments together. This concert promises to showcase the favorite gems from their repertoire, spanning from lieder to tango and a major sonata.
In “Le Grand Tango,” Piazzolla captures the essence of his own creation – tango nuevo – infusing it with the distinctive voice that is both timeless and universal in its appeal. Brahms’ Cello Sonata No. 2 remains a cornerstone of the cello repertoire, cherished by performers and audiences alike for its beauty, depth, and timeless appeal. With its expression and technical brilliance, it stands as a testament to Brahms’ legacy as one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era. At this event, other renowned compositions such as the beloved Méditation from the opera Thaïs and Schubert’s Schwanengesang will also be interpreted through the expressive voice of the cello, capturing the essence of these timeless pieces in a new and captivating light.
Sabina and Sam are both very excited to embark on this inspiring musical journey with you all!
