Natacha

Kudritskaya

Golijov, Silvestrov, Couperin & Beethoven

'The music is here and there, all around us. I don’t write it, don’t invent it, I just put it on the score.'– Valentin Silvestrov. Natacha Kudritskaya explores in this program different approaches to beauty, with each composer offering a unique perspective. Osvaldo Golijov’s ZZ’s Dream features imaginative textures that blur the boundaries between reality and dreams. Silvestrov’s music flows like a stream of consciousness - delicate and atmospheric, reflecting the world around us in real time. Couperin’s intellectual elegance is so refined that his lyrical beauty feels timeless. Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata embodies philosophical depth, revealing the inner emotional landscape of the composer. Finally, Golijov’s Levante, inspired by the winds of change, reminds us that music can be a universal language that crosses boundaries and connects us all.
