BONET,LINA TUR; DANI ESPASA

Description:

Popular player Bonné alternates between Bach and Handel. The art of these two composers shines through in sharp contrast. Both are among the most important composers of the Baroque era, but they never met in their lifetime. This album alternates the violin sonatas of Bach and Handel, allowing the listener to hear the differences in style and to dream of a chance encounter between these two historic musicians. Lina Tour Bonet is a Spanish violinist who is gaining popularity as a violinist to watch. Her bold, bright, and lively playing is characteristic of her. She and keyboardist Dani Espasa, who is also a member of her own ensemble "Musica Alchemica," exchange brilliant exchanges of ideas. In Bach, she makes the intricate counterpoints sparkle and resonate with a grainy quality, and in Handel, she makes the generous melodies and deep harmonies sound spontaneous and carefree. By alternating the performances, each performer imprints his or her own individuality, the differences between the composers and the heights they have reached with each other emerge as sharp contrasts.
