"Alpha and Omega" explores the cyclical nature of music, beginning with the world premiere of Aurignac's piano septet, one of the most prolific and original composers of today. Turina's plural passionate expression in his Piano quartet follows. The concert culminates with the grandeur of Enescu's String octet, a work that reflects the talent, depth and creativity of a genius, an outstanding successor of Felix Mendelssohn in the genre. This program brings us onto a journey that embraces the entirety of musical creation, connecting the extremes of the musical alphabet with mastery and emotion.
