Balagan

"Balagan" is a fascinating journey through 20th-century chamber music, from Bartók to Vivier, Milhaud to Horovitz and Schoenfield. The works in the programme, inspired by folk traditions, blend the vitality of popular music with the refinement of chamber writing, sometimes enriched by jazz influences. Leading this journey is a trio composed of Bulgarian violinist Liya Petrova, Spanish clarinettist Pablo Barragán and German pianist Amadeus Wiesensee. The concert opens with Darius Milhaud's Suite for violin, clarinet and piano, which reflects the influence of folk music and Brazilian jazz.
