An Encounter Between Historical Recording and Live Performance<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Conservatorio di Musica \u201cClaudio Monteverdi\u201d di Cremona presents its String Quartet in a programme that brings together the great Romantic tradition with a fascinating encounter between technology, recorded memory and live performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The exceptional protagonist \u2014 if only in spirit \u2014 will be the legendary Polish pianist Raoul Koczalski (1884\u20131948), a major figure in the history of Chopin interpretation and a pupil of Karol Mikuli, who had himself studied with Fryderyk Chopin. Thanks to Disklavier technology, audiences will be able to hear Koczalski\u2019s interpretation of the first movement of Chopin\u2019s Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor, Op. 11, reconstructed from a historic piano-roll recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The piano will reproduce Koczalski\u2019s performance live, preserving its distinctive dynamic, agogic and rhythmic nuances, while the Conservatory String Quartet simultaneously performs the orchestral part in Chopin\u2019s own arrangement for string quartet. The result is a unique dialogue across time: a performer from the past symbolically returns to the stage to make music with a new generation of musicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The concert thus becomes a bridge between different eras: from Chopin\u2019s great Romantic tradition to Koczalski\u2019s recorded interpretative legacy and the young musicians of today, in an experience where historical documentation and contemporary live performance meet on the same stage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The program is also including live performances by other students of the Monteverdi Conservatory, performing Tchaikovsky and Chopin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
