Vocal academic music is presented here in its full range - from opera scenes to chamber duets with piano. The program includes compositions by Tchaikovsky, Arensky, Mozart, Verdi, Puccini, Mascagni, and Saint-Saëns, with voices of different timbres weaving a light summer journey through familiar and rare pages of the genre. Vocal academic music is especially expressive in a chamber format: when voices are close to the listener, and the piano emphasizes the drama, humor, tenderness, or tension of the scene. The evening is built around ensemble sound - the program features scenes and ensembles from operas, as well as chamber duets. The program unites compositions by Tchaikovsky, Arensky, Mozart, Verdi, Puccini, Mascagni, and Saint-Saëns. Here, different national schools, temperaments, and ways of musical storytelling will meet: from delicate lyricism to vivid operatic clashes.
