This concert presents a captivating fusion of French and Maltese contemporary compositions, highlighting the unique timbres of both the piano and toy piano. The program opens with Erik Satie’s surrealist ballet score Parade, arranged by Ruben Zahra for piano and toy piano, blending whimsy with modernity. Pierre-Adrien Charpy's Suite Caféinée offers a lively exploration of caffeinated energy, contrasting sharply with Veronique Vella’s W.A.R. - When Angels Rest, a poignant reflection on peace and conflict.
Nicolas Bacri’s Tenebrae draws listeners into a meditative soundscape, evoking the shadows of Holy Week. Regis Campo’s Starry Night paints an aural picture of the night sky, brimming with color and imagination. The recital closes with Ruben Zahra’s Pan the Goat-God, a mythological journey through the wild, capturing the rustic and mysterious essence of the ancient deity. This program offers a rich, diverse exploration of contemporary piano music.
