Historical context
This program is a musical journey that travels from the beauty of nature to the rhythm of the city. We start with Tchaikovsky’s gentle portraits of spring and summer, move through Bach’s joyful Italian Concerto and Fauré’s lyrical Fantasie, and then turn to music that’s closer to my heart — traditional Tatar folk songs full of color and emotion. The evening ends with the energy of Piazzolla’s tangos and Brubeck’s jazz, where classical meets the pulse of modern life.
It’s a story told through sound — from quiet seasons to lively streets.
The whole program is about 45 minutes
