Michael Ierace - piano Vatche Jambazian - piano
Tchaikovsky - The Nutcracker Suite (arr. Nicholas Economou)
Lutosławski - Concerto for Orchestra (arr. for two pianos by Joe Chindamo) [Premiere]
The unique sonic alchemy of two pianos has long served as one of the most reliable vehicles through which to faithfully reproduce orchestral sonorities and textures. Liszt, Brahms, Ravel and Rachmaninoff (to name only a few celebrated examples) all initially turned to four hands as the medium for a composition that was later expanded for full orchestra. In a recital that opens with a sparkling arrangement of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite for two pianos, staff pianist Michael Ierace is joined by Sydney-based pianist Vatche Jambazian (a Masters graduate of The Juilliard School in New York) to explore the inverse of this process, culminating in the premiere of a new two-piano version of Lutosławski’s Concerto for Orchestra by Dr Joe Chindamo OAM.
