When two powerful conductors of musical energy—Johann Sebastian Bach and Giovanni Sollima—come into contact, the result is Cortocircuito: a concert in which past and present illuminate one another.
Artistic partners for almost twenty years, Elisa Citterio and Stefano Demicheli have created a programme in which the new Interludes that Giovanni Sollima composed especially for them take up the legacy of Bach’s Sonatas, revealing unexpected affinities of rhythm, lyricism, and expressive intensity.
The result is a seamless musical journey, dissolving the boundaries between early and contemporary music, where the music of the past continues to challenge the present, while the music of today casts fresh light on the masterpieces of the Kantor.
