The year 2022 began for the piano duo Tal & Groethuysen with three wonderful concerts at the Cartagena Festival Internacional de Música. On 4 January the duo presented works by Mendelssohn and Schubert, on 5 January by Brahms and on 6 January by Debussy and Bizet: "As is tradition, some of the concerts were accompanied by the voice of the piano, performed by one of the world's most important duos on this instrument, the Israeli pianist Yaara Tal and her German partner Andreas Groethuysen".

Jean Rondeau publishes the Goldberg Variations

On 11th of February 2022 Jean Rondeau will publish his interpretation of the Goldberg Variations by Johann Sebastian Bach: “An ode to silence” is how harpsichordist Jean Rondeau has described Bach’s Goldberg Variations. “I feel they were written for silence, in the sense that they take the place of silence,” he says. “All Bach is there in the Goldberg Variations … all music is there ... and I will no doubt spend my life working on them.” To prepare his interpretation he consulted an original printed edition of the work, containing Bach’s own markings and corrections. “Through delving into this precious musicological source, I was able to make what I felt to be the most authentic choices.” Rondeau performs the set of variations in its complete form, with the indicated repeats and with judicious insertion of moments of silence.

Chouchane Siranossian inspires with Violin Concerto No. 1 by Bruch

On 11 and 12 January 2022 Chouchane Siranossian was a guest of the Bergische Symphoniker in Remscheid and Solingen. Conducted by Nicholas Milton, she impressed audience and press with her interpretation of the Concerto for Violin and Orchestra No. 1 in G minor by Max Bruch: "When you hear the main theme - especially as irresistibly played as by Chouchane Siranossian - you have to be enraptured. [...] The violinist thanked with an extensive encore of historical settings. Her runs in the highest registers were breathtaking." (Solinger Morgenpost / Solinger Tageblatt, 13.01.2022, Klaus Günther)

Excellent review for "Bach before Bach" by Chouchane Siranossian

The year 2022 begins with excellent reviews for Chouchane Siranossian. Her album "Bach before Bach", recorded with harpsichordist Leonardo García Alarcón and cellist Balázs Máté, has won rave reviews from BBC Music Magazine and Scherzo: „Cue this wonderful recital headed up by violinist Chouchane Siranossian that brings us Bach before ‚Bach‘ (or should that be ‚BACH‘), and places his early music at various pin drops along a fascinating journey through his predecessors and contemporaries. […] And while built on traditional foundations, Andreas Anton Schmelzer’s deliciously theatrical Victori der Christen is presented in a similarly outlandish way, thanks to the unbridled energy and thrilling musicianship of these brillant players.“Performance: 5/5 stars, Recording: 5/5(BBC Music Magazine, 01/2022, Oliver Condy)
