JACOB REUVEN | mandolin ORCHESTRE NATIONAL DE FRANCE
OMER MEIR WELLBER | accordion and conducting
Programme
KLEZMER AND TANGO, for accordion and mandolin
Works by BACH, SADIKOVA, ALBÉNIZ
If the tutelary figure of Bach looms large over the evening, it's to better reinvent him, to establish links between places and times, with dance as a fixed idea. Thus, the First Partita responds to a Chaconne for orchestra and mandolin by composer Aziza Sadikova from Uzbekistan, while tango and klezmer accents smile on Albeniz's AndalusianAsturias. And let's not forget conductor Omer Meir Wellber with his accordion. Beware of false pretenses!
