Stefanos Nasos – Apostolos Palios
Chamber music concert
Pieces by Béla Bartók, John Luther Adams, Giorgos Sisilianos
The piano duo Stefanos Nasos-Apostolos Palios, and percussionists Marios Nikolaou-Marinos Tranoudakis, will present a performance which combines piano and percussion. The performance is built around Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion, a masterwork of the great Hungarian composer Béla Bartók and a standard piece for pianists and percussionists worldwide. This work is noted for its highly idiosyncratic qualities, even though it should not be considered an avant-garde piece per se. The duo will present Pulitzer-winning composer John Luther Adams’ distinct-sounding, instantly recognizable Red Arc / Blue Veil (2001) for piano, mallet instruments, and electronic sounds. They will also perform Giorgos Silisianos’ Tanagraea Op. 17a(1957), a ballet suite for two pianos and percussion, as a tribute to the great Greek composer. This work has only rarely been presented in this form, and wasn’t even captured in a CD until 2016. John Luther Adams: Red Arc/Blue Veil [2001] (for piano, mallet instruments, and electronic sounds) [Greek premiere], Giorgos Silisianos’ Tanagraea Op. 17a (1957), a ballet suite for two pianos and percussion, Béla Bartók:Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion.
