A wonderfully concise journey through pieces which bring the piano and the cello close to each other. From the “left-hand” figuration of Bach’s G major suite to the tenor line in Chopin’s Etude in C-sharp minor. The culmination is Piatigorsky’s arrangement of Stravinsky’s Suite Italienne, from Pulcinella’s ballet, infused with the early baroque tunes of Pergolesi, a great passion of Diaghilev. The young award-winning Italian duo is best placed to showcase their fresh take on this eclectic set of works.
