Eurasian Flow: Viktoria & Virtuosi – 30 exquisite young musicians from 10 nations play Tango, Mozart & Modern Music
“Eurasian Flow”, performed by Viktoria & Virtuosi, is an atmospheric program full of drive and noblesse. Walking on the Silk Road, a fascinating cosmos of familiar and exotic sound worlds is fanned out in a common dialogue. Tango, Mozart & modernity are inspiringly interwoven. The internationally renowned violin soloist and composer Viktoria Elisabeth Kaunzner from Berlin, who is appreciated for her artistic esprit and beautiful, changeable sound, creates this flow on stage with her 30 exquisite young colleagues from over ten nations. Thus, next to the passionate tango violin concerto by the Argentine composer Claudia Montero, another work of this genre joins in: Violeta Dinescu dedicated to Viktoria her finely chiseled, equally energetically exalted sound narrative “Roman Fleuve”. Here, resonant spaces are created for insights from dream research, improvisation and performance in the narrative style of a French literary genre already used by Marcel Proust. The calligraphed music manuscript is projected on the wall during the performance, transporting the audience into a cinematic space. Viktoria’s music, “Saiga Antelope,” is a cleverly arranged combination of documentary silent fi lm and live music about an endangered Eurasian steppe animal. Another concert highlight will be the world premiere of the enchanting work commissioned by Viktoria & Virtuosi, “Times of Rain and Sun,” by acclaimed Uzbek-Australian composer Elena Kats-Chernin.
Viktoria, who served as the youngest Western professor in South Korea for seven years until 2019, sweetens the program with her violin mozärtlich with the world patent of the sounding vegan chocolate record. Wrapped in stunning fashion, the concert evening will be a synaesthetic highlight in a class of its own for adults, young people and children.
