We invite you to experience Sergei Rachmaninow’s masterpieces in the White Hall of the Volkshaus Zürich, a well-established cultural center in the heart of the city.
The Duo des Eaux-Vives, consisting of cellist Dmitry Shameev and pianist Kristina Annamukhamedova, will perform the composer’s works for cello and piano. This evening is dedicated to the emotional depth and fiery passion of Rachmaninoff’s music. The warm, human voice of the cello intertwines with the thunderous power and tenderness of the piano, revealing all facets of the composer’s romantic soundscape. This chamber concert offers a fresh perspective on his major works.
Sergei Rachmaninow (1873–1943) was a composer, conductor, and one of the outstanding pianists of his time. He is regarded as one of the last great voices of the Romantic tradition. His music is prized for its sweeping, song-like melodies, rich Harmonies, and emotional depth. In chamber music, these qualities are expressed in a particularly direct and personal way.
