DescriptionOne of Bach's best loved instrumental works, the gothic keyboard Concerto in D Minor, eases us gently into the evening’s exploration of human emotions. Piazzolla’s tango nuevo, full of Argentine sensuality and wistfulness, then dances us from the bordellos of Buenos Aires to the concert hall. Proving even the most serious composers have a wild side, Erwin Schulhoff’s Sonata Erotica is a playful, completely unabashed solo for female voice, challenging our perceptions of what music should be. When we’ve regained our composure, the musicians return to the stage with Cesar Franck’s magnificent Piano Quintet in F Minor, where the sensuality is all refined, but still urgent, romantic passion.
