Batiashvili/Capucon - Johannes Brahms: Double Concerto, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Romeo and Juliet, Franz Liszt: Les Pr�ludes

Violinist Lisa Batiashvili, cellist Gautier Capu�on, Christian Thielemann and the Staatskapelle Dresden present a sophisticated concert programme of three great composers: Johannes Brahms, Pyotr I. Tchaikovsky and Franz Liszt. In Brahms� Double Concerto Lisa Bathiashvili is playing her Guarneri �with tenderness and devotion� (Der Neue Merker). Her lyrical, velevety performance is contrasted by Capu�on�s more throaty and vibrating tone: �The two ways of playing seem to collide sometimes but to match brilliantly at the same time�. Christian Thielemann and his Staatskapelle �are mixing different colours as if they were putting emeralds and rubies on precious metal, creating huge sonority but always retaining clarity in it� (Dresdner Neueste Nachrichten).
