When the ethereal tones of the violin collide with the rhythmic power of the percussion, you're treated to a full-speed ride through exciting and soothing vibrations at the same time. In the program “Chill & Thrill” Renowned violinist and composer Aleksey Igudesman embarks on one of his musical adventures, inviting the exceptionally talented percussionist and composer Lucy Landymore to contribute to a performance of exceptional artistic brilliance and originality.
With masterful arrangements, Igudesman breathes new, vivid life into timeless compositions by Bach and Mozart, while enchantingly showcasing the magical synergy of violin and percussion.
When Landymore joins Igudesman in his wild and popular solo violin work “Yes, Sir”, Latin rhythms echo from her congas and bongos. The stage comes alive in an electrifying display of virtuosity and irresistibly infectious melodies, adding a hypnotic dimension to Igudesman's music.
Inspired by her research during her travels in Latin America, Landymore brings the pulsating energy of salsa and samba to her compositions, while her works “Healing Pieces” for vibraphone provide comfort to the mind and body, adding a sublime layer of profound beauty to the performance.
In keeping with Igudesman's signature style, humor occasionally takes center stage, eliciting infectious laughter and releasing waves of endorphins. So prepare for an evening that blends eloquence with glee—an experience that promises both entertainment and a sublime musical journey.
