Rome, Botanical Garden: The Shirvani Sisters – Concert of the season “Classic at sunset” of the University Institution of concerts, La Sapienza

Tuesday 27 June 2023 20:30

Roma, Orto Botanico, Largo Cristina di Svezia, 24

The sisters Leila and Sara Shirvani offer a program of a thousand colors, a musical journey characterized by extremely contrasting pieces, each of a composer of different origin: The Shirvani Sisters begin the journey from Rachmaninov’s Russia to fly to Beethoven’s Germany: from his 7 Variations on “Bei Männenn Welche Liebe Fühlen” from the magic flute of Mozart Woo 46 we move to Italy with Rossini’s “Une Larme” to then dive into Debussy’s France with his sonata for cello and piano. The singable melodies of Persia who recall the origins of the two musicians will enchant the listener before the virtuous dance of the fire of the Spanish De Falla.

Program:

> S. Rachmaninov – “Vocalise” op. 34 n ° 14
> L.V. Beethoven – 7 variations on “Bei Männenn Welche Liebe Fühlen” from the magic flute of Mozart Woo 46
> G. Rossini – “Une lame”
> C. Debussy – Sonata for cello and piano
> Persian popular melody (taken from the chlorophyll album)
> M. De Falla – Fire dance
