The Trio Fortuny presents a programme based on works by contemporary European composers, without losing sight of the great works of the repertoire. Starting with the adagio from the Piano Sonata in F, KV 280 By W. A. Mozart, the Estonian Arvo Pärt has composed - arranged, adapted, transformed - a posthumous musical tribute to the Russian violinist Oleg Kagan, a soul-friend and virtuoso interpreter of Mozart's works. “In trio format, the violin and cello provide commentary, footnotes, reflections on the original material,” he quotes quite literally. In it, Pärt comments on Mozart without any sentimentality and endows it with a fourth dimension. The memory of a better time, a game close to improvisation on the basis of a classic.
Music that is also poetry, this is the guiding thread of the programme. The haikus that inspired the composer Josep Maria Guix, the Hebrew melody by Ernst Bloch and the Tríor with piano no. 1 in D m, op. 49 by Felix Mendelssohn have the same narrative will, to tell a story. It narrates one of Issa Kobayashi's haikus that inspire Guix:
«Morning fog,
a frenzy of drops
the tree gives off”.”
His is a music in which orientalism and a fascination for sounds that transcend the instrument verge on the hyptonic. At the same time, the night, inseparable from the romantic idea of the creative spirit, inspires the Three nocturnal by Ernst Bloch, as dreamlike as energetic, music close to the traditional, almost folkloric but impregnated with a very modern language.
Finally, the Tríor with piano, op. 49 is the most canonical work in the concert, a work that Mendelssohn rewrote and reworked to become one of the most emblematic of the genre. This composition portrays the tradition of song and word, of dance, of songs without words. The evocation of its non-verbal language is as direct as Kobayashi's own haiku, again evoking the song of the Jewish people.
