Raphaela Gromes - The sound of summer

On May 23rd, Raphaela Gromes and Julian Riem took over for Jean-Guihen Queyras who had to cancel due to illness and Alexandre Tharaud in Kempen's Paterskirche - and were promptly rewarded with stunning reviews; the RP Online writes: "Cellist Raphaela Gromes and her piano accompanist Julian Riem advanced (...) to favorites of the audience. For ten years now, the 30-year-old instrumentalists, who have received numerous honors and have traveled extensively, have formed an almost ideal musical partnership that makes each of their performances an acoustic and visual experience. A dreamlike, confident cooperation and an irrepressible joy in making music - despite all the technical and interpretational demands, which were mastered in an exemplary manner - also captivated the visitors in the Paterskirche and drew them to sustained applause time and again." After the final concerts of her residency with the Göttingen Symphony Orchestra on May 28 and 29, Raphaela Gromes continues to be on the road a lot this summer, you can see her live at the Rheingau Musik Festival in a trio with harpist Anneleen Lenaerts, at the Kissinger Sommer, the Schubertiade in Schwarzenberg as well as with the Georgian Chamber Orchestra in Ingolstadt and after a tour of Central America with Julian Riem she will perform works by remarkable female composers with the Festival Strings Lucerne at the Culture and Congress Center in Lucerne on August 21st.
