About

The power of seduction of the violin irresistibly includes Ravel's Tzigane, a demanding piece for the soloist and turns out to be a visit to the great romantic virtuosos. The rhapsody comes to us through the hands of Martyn Jackson, a recent member of the oldest British chamber ensemble, the prestigious Allegri Quartet. The evening begins with a master in the art of orchestration, Schreker, and a work that surprises by the greatly expressive symphonic sounds that he manages to extract from a chamber orchestra. The programme is completed with a famous Russian work that, although written for piano, is so powerfully suggestive that gave rise to numerous orchestrations. In this museum, imagined by Mussorgsky and painted with an arrangement by Walter Goehr, the Pictures at an Exhibition are on display, as well as the state of mind of the visitor who visits the different rooms observing the paintings and drawings.
