Pianorama V
Carte blanche with Monica and Carl-Axel Dominique.
Pianorama is a recurring festival at Konserthuset Stockholm where the piano plays the main role in all concerts. Many of Sweden’s leading pianists will appear, as well as some of Sweden’s most prominent percussionists and string musicians. This year’s festival has a special focus on music for two pianos and four hands.
“Double the piano means piano with extra everything! The challenge is to play so that it sounds like two pianos together, yet still like a dialogue between two discernible voices,” says initiator and artistic director Roland Pöntinen.
Carte blanche means having the freedom to do exactly what one wants. Here, Monica and Carl-Axel Dominique will be able to do just that, each on their own piano. In all likelihood, anything could happen.
