The Paraninfo of the University of La Laguna will host the concert 'La France Romantique' this Thursday, May 4th, at 8:30 pm, performed by clarinetist Marta Pío and pianist Mara Jaubert, featuring pieces by French composers. tickets They can be purchased on the Tomaticket website at a general price of 12 euros, while for students the cost is 8 euros.
The concert repertoire will feature several well-known pieces, including Francis Poulenc's 'Sonata for Clarinet and Piano,' which is characterized by its continuous tempo changes, unexpected pauses, contrasting sounds, and distinct timbres in both instruments. This work stands in stark contrast to another of the duo's selections, Jules Semler-Collery's 'Reverié et Scherzo,' which boasts a simpler style.
In addition, the program will feature Charles-Marie Widor's 'Introduction e Rondo,' composed for the 1897 Paris Conservatory Competition, which explores the Romantic character of the instruments. Also included is Philippe Gaubert's 'Fantaisie,' showcasing the French compositional style, and Eugenio Bozza's 'Claribel,' with its Impressionist influences evident in the piano and clarinet chords.
