The cello stands out among the strings for its deep lyrical sound, which resembles, one could say, a human voice, masculine and full-bodied. Leading composers, especially of the Romantic era, considered the cello ideal for expressing their “great” melodies and their most heartbreaking narratives. The piano, on the other hand, absolutely dominant in the music of the 19th and 20th centuries, had shown its full potential for a sound of symphonic dimensions, which can shine as such but also exuberantly accompany other instruments. That is why the cello and piano’s association uniquely fuelled the imagination of many composers and inspired some of their finest works. Timotheos Gavriilides-Petrin and Vassilis Varvaresos, outstanding performers with a remarkable artistic presence on an international level, join their talents in a program of high emotions.
