Program notes
The Tsinandali Festival is back for its sixth edition in 2024! Every year since 2019, the greatest performers, conductors, composers, and artists from all over the world have joined forces in the magnificent village of Tsinandali, in eastern Georgia, to promote music in this region at the crossroads of Europe and Asia — affording young musicians from the Caucasus the opportunity to study and perform with top-name artists, and offering audiences worldwide an unforgettable musical experience in an idyllic locale.
Longtime collaborators Julien Quentin (piano) and Edgar Moreau (cello) reunite in Tsinandali for an elegant and stirring set of chamber favorites, beginning with Mendelssohn’s D Major Cello Sonata. This 1843 masterpiece, personal and passionate, prefigures the Romanticism to come in works like Brahms’s bold and tempestuous F Major Cello Sonata, created during a prolific period in 1886, which comes next on the program. Finally, Quentin and Moreau stop the show on an undeniable showstopper: the exuberant and always impressive Variations on One String by Paganini, on a theme from Rossini’s Moses in Egypt!
