A New World - Blue Rose Duo Plays Music from the Americas

Rose Chen, piano / Lars Hoefs, cello

Traveling from Brazil and Argentina to Mexico and the United States, pianist Rose Chen and cellist Lars Hoefs present a smoldering program of pan-American delights. Samba rhythms reinvigorate Bach, Stravinsky joins a mariachi band, and once-forbidden tango takes the stage. Music by Villa-Lobos, Ginastera, Piazzolla, Chavez, Revueltas, Barber and Bolcom draw expression and life’s essence from the new world, crossing over one hemisphere in order to bridge another.

- Program -

Heitor Villa-Lobos: Bachianas Brasileiras No.2
Alberto Ginastera: Pune?a No.2, Op.45 for cello solo
Carlos Ch?vez: Madrigal /Sonatina
