About

The trio of Maria Vlasova, Zoya Vyazovskaya, and Olga Kiyashkina connects Bach and Gershwin in one evening. The accordion, flute, and piano will engage in a lively dialogue. When the music of Johann Sebastian Bach and George Gershwin meets in one concert, and the parts are shared between the flute, accordion, and piano, the usual perceptions of an academic program change. The combination of baroque architecture and jazz intonations creates a profound impression. At the piano is Olga Kiyashkina, the flute part is performed by Zoya Vyazovskaya, and the accordion by Maria Vlasova. Each instrument brings its own timbre: the flute adds light and flexibility to the phrases, the accordion strengthens the pulse and supports the harmony, and the piano builds a foundation for the overall movement. At the center of the program are Bach's Goldberg Variations. In their usual form, they are more often associated with the keyboard, but transferring them to a trio of instruments opens up new accents. Some episodes are closer to meditativeness, others to pronounced danceability, while variations with a denser textural pattern sound almost orchestral. Gershwin's music will add a different energy. The vocal works of the American composer in arrangements for flute, accordion, and piano retain their lightness but acquire a new texture: the balance of voices changes, and quiet nuances appear that remain off-screen in the vocal version. For those who love academic music and are interested in how it intersects with jazz tradition, the concert becomes an opportunity to listen more attentively to familiar works. The meeting will be appealing to both regular listeners of chamber programs and those who are just taking their first steps towards Bach and Gershwin.
