Robert Schumann bringing us to new and unexpected

Robert Schumann bringing us to new and unexpected worlds, simple and immensely tender.

시간이 조금만 바뀌고 공간이 조금만 바뀌어도 질서가 깨지고 습관에 의문이 제기되며, 현실은 갑자기 이전에는 상상할 수 없었던 차원을 갖게 된다. 이러한 변화는 갑작스러운 지각의 변화 가능성과 함께 우리를 둘러싼 사물에 대한 경험을 풍부하게 한다. 현실과 우리의 눈이 일반적으로 인식하는 것이 서로 맞지 않는 것처럼 보이는 네 가지 이미지를 여기에 모았다.

“Rachenitsa,” by the one and only Aleksey Igud

“Rachenitsa,” by the one and only Aleksey Igudesman, always full of invention and who brings unexpected dimensions to the music scene (check @igudesman !).

An encore in 7/8, following a performance of the Hoffmeister viola concerto with the University of Suwon Symphony Orchestra. The first bars and the end are (sadly) missing!
