Chamber Music: Grande Fantaisie

Description

Caroline Baeriswyl, Yumi Kubo violin Verena Schweizer viola Yao Jin cello Meglena Tzaneva Dupraz piano Rita Strohl Duo for two violins, viola, and cello Grande Fantaisie – Piano quintet with two violins, viola, and cello. Conceived by the musicians of the OSR, this Chamber Music series invites you to discover the artists in small formation who make up the Orchestra. Be surprised by treasures from the repertoire or unexpected discoveries in the intimate setting of the Geneva Conservatory of Music every Sunday at 11 a.m. Long overlooked, “Rita” Aimée Marie Marguerite Strohl is a French composer whose rich and expressive writing has, in recent years, regained the place it deserves in the repertoire. Evidence of this are her String Quartet and Grande Fantaisie, which reveal a vibrant universe filled with lyricism and daring, which you can discover in this program entirely dedicated to her, thanks to the generous loan from Palazzetto Bru Zane, a center for French Romantic music.
