SUMMARY:Musica Viva presents Avi Avital and Giocoso Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 14 April\, 7pm\nTuesday 24 April\, 7pm \n“Everything you never dreamt a mandolin could do…truly breathtaking in virtuosity and dedication.” \nHaaretz Daily \nA solo superstar\, an award-winning quartet\, and music for the heart and the mind. Avi Avital is a ground-breaking virtuoso of the mandolin. Able to move easily between foot-stomping folk dances and filigree Baroque concertos\, his performances challenge people’s perceptions of his instrument and are celebrated for an all-embracing stage presence. \nHere\, these bright yet intimate sounds are a perfect foil for the warm strings of the Giocoso Quartet. As winners of the Musica Viva and Audience prizes at the 2015 Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition\, their zesty\, characterful playing has helped them steadily build a reputation through Europe and Asia. \nTogether\, this unusual combination demands fascinating repertoire. This includes two works written for Avi: David Bruce’s tribute to the Celtic sun god\, Cymbeline\, and Elena Kats-Chernin’s new piece\, sparkling with her trademark theatricality along with Bach and Schumann. \nGiocoso String Quartet\nSebastian Casleanu violin\nTeofil Todica violin\nMartha Windhagauer viola\nBas Jongen cello \n\nPROGRAM\nSCHUMANN String Quartet no 1 in A minor\, op 41 no 1\nKATS-CHERNIN Orfeo\nJS BACH Chaconne from Partita in D minor for violin\, BWV1004\nBRUCE Cymbeline for mandolin and string quartet \n*Commissioned for Musica Viva by Kim Williams AM
