Opposites attract!
...is the saying.
So also here in a musical way:
There are many contrasts between the brass instrument trumpet and the keyboard instrument piano. We have decided to give this contrasts musical space and explore it together in a playful way.

New Harmonies for Piano and Trumpet
The Program follows an insteressting concept:
Contemporary pieces and an old own are mixed together. The old piece is variated in multiple ways and step by step it gets alienated from the original.
A humoristic approach to Contemporary Music. It provides some smirks and tension up to the end.
The second movement of Joseph Haydns Trumpet Concerto in E flat is the musical material for this sound experiment.

-
le2dam "Variationen über den 2. Satz aus Haydns Trompetenkonzert Variation 1“

In order to bring these pieces on stage, le2dam has dedicated this program only to female composers.

-
Francine Aubin "Concerto Russe"
-
Yu-Chun Huang "Zwischen den Realitäten"
-
Claude Arrieu "Concerto"
-
Nina Šenk „Odsevi (Reflections)“
