Liu Fang, Pipa and GuzhengEmma Tahmizian, Piano Hagai Shaham, Violin Yehuda Hanani, Cello Tickets:
Close Encounters with Music is an enriching concert experience that brings together sublime chamber music, distinguished performers and insightful commentary. Putting the composers and their times in perspective, cellist and Artistic Director Yehuda Hanani introduces the program from the stage. Trade Winds: From China with Love explores the musical dialogue between East and West, with soloist "Queen of Pipa" Liu Fang performing traditional selections on the Chinese counterpart to the lute. She is joined by Yehuda Hanani for a premiere by Pulitzer Prize winner Zhou Long. Bulgarian pianist Emma Tahmizian plays Mother Goose and Leo Ornstein’s remarkable A la Chinoise, and Israeli violinist Hagai Shaham offers Kreisler’s Tambourin Chinois and Joseph Achron’s haunting Hebrew Melody. The program concludes with Ravel’s groundbreaking pentatonic-inflected Piano Trio. Brimming with ardor and ecstacy, it’s like a Picasso painting in music — the modern that returns to primitive. Free for Students!
