A sonorous foray from Mozart to Tchaikovsky that transforms memories, longing and Italian flair into music.
"Music is an expression where words are missing and only emotions speak." - Sandro Meszaros
In 19th century Italy, souvenirs were not only bought in stores; educated tourists preferred to write, paint or compose them for themselves. Tchaikovsky also created such a sonorous souvenir with his sextet "Souvenir de Florence". In his only string sextet, which he wrote in his native Russia, Russian melancholy and a light mood mingle in homage to the mild Italian winter. The sextet from "Capriccio" by Richard Strauss also echoes memories - of an enraptured, almost timeless world that stands in sharp contrast to the war and persecution of the time in which it was written. Finally, Mozart's piano and strings meet at eye level, dramatically, yet with playful elegance.
