Chamber Concert – Skuta Piano Duo
Igor Stravinsky and Béla Bartók are two classics of the 20th-century music who are close to each other. Both profit from the rudimentary form of folk music, both are impulsive in their works and compositionally inventive without succumbing to constructivist experiment of their contemporaries. Hardly can we find in music history another pair of works which so brilliantly supplement each other.
For years the Skuta Piano Duo has had the chamber version of Stravinsky's famous ballet in their repertory, and every time they astonish with the mastery of their rendering. Bartók's eruptive and rhythmically sophisticated opus from 1937, in which they will be joined by renowned percussionists – the Austrian Rupert Struber and Bulgarian Kiril Stoyanov, a member of the Slovak Philharmonic – is likewise a promise of an unusually interesting evening.
