MUSIC AND VISUALITY Presented by Liszt Academy

Just as we see in the novel The Glass Bead Game by Hesse, where science, art and religion combine, so it is not unusual to find in real life various skills and gifts in people. This year’s kamara.hu showcases many such multidimensional artists and composers. Just as Hesse was not only an author but a fine painter, too, so Messiaen harmonized music with religion in a special dimension, and Ligeti, with his remarkable mathematical sense, integrated fields of science with music, while this diversity is similarly apparent in the performance artists. At this ground-breaking event of the 2018 festival, pianist Roman Rabinovich presents his two passions at a single audio-visual concert: while playing alongside his wife, violinist Diana Cohen, his own animations and pictures tell a story connected to the works being performed.
