Relevant Cuban Musicians Premiere Adaptation of Mozart Sonata

The Cuban musicians Frank Fernandez and Niurka González will debut in the country on November 27 with a transcription for piano and flute, one of the most famous sonatas of Mozart, as announced here.

 

The piece was originally written in the eighteenth century for violin and piano by the brilliant Austrian composer.
 

The concert will also include works by Bach, Tchaikovsky and Fernandez himself, author of more than 650 compositions for dissimilar formats such as ballet, chorus, soundtracks for film, radio and television, among others.
 

The Minor Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi, located in the homonymous square of the called historic center of the capital, will host the only concert.
 

Gonzalez won the First Prize in 1997 at the Conservatory of Music in Paris, having also won numerous laurels in Cuba as the Grand Prize at the VI Competition and Chamber Music Conference of the National Center of Concert Music.
 

For his part, Fernandez, graduate concert pianist with gold title at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow, is the creator of contemporary Cuban piano school and the first Cuban awarded with the Pushkin Medal in Russia.
 

This Cuban musician closed its most recent recital with a masterful performance of the Concerto No. 23 in the largest piano and orchestra by Mozart while he was cast in Prague's for performing the famed Concerto No. 1 Tchaikovsky, in the same place where the great author premiered the classic piece a hundred years ago.
