About

A chamber journey through inner states reveals a lesser-known side of Paul Hindemith - a musician whose precision and form combine with lyricism and hidden dramaturgy. The program features rare compositions from different years, allowing listeners to hear how the composer's intonation changed and how his music captures the tension of time and the work of memory. Getting acquainted with the works of Paul Hindemith in a chamber format allows one to view music as a space of internal movement and change of states. His works are often perceived through the lens of craftsmanship and structural rigor; however, behind the precise lines lies expressiveness that becomes particularly noticeable in attentive performance. The program unites compositions created during different periods of the author's life and offers a chance to hear how his artistic tasks and methods of working with sound evolved. At the heart of the evening are piano pages from the cycle "In the Night... Dreams and Memories," created in the early 20th century. This is music where the author's youth is felt, his desire to find his own language, and his pursuit of plasticity of form. The numbers in the cycle are constructed as a series of images: fragmented, dreamlike, sometimes unsettling. Their contrast emphasizes the emotional freedom that will become the foundation for the further development of his style. The sonata-fantasia for viola and piano continues this line - here, the turns of thought, rapid changes of gestures, and the feeling of internal tension are important. An eight-song vocal cycle on texts by German-speaking modernists demonstrates another direction of Hindemith's work - attention to the word and an attempt to connect the poetic image with precise musical form. The parts for voice and piano interact as equal interlocutors, constantly changing the character and density of sound. The sonata for double bass and piano, written later during his years of emigration, adds a more mature perspective to the program. Here, clarity of thought and restrained expressiveness characteristic of his later period emerge. If you don't know where to walk in Moscow, come to
