Another concert from the cycle SZYMANOWSKI AT THE LENTZ VILLA, marking Karol Szymanowski’s 140th birth and 85th death anniversary, was held last Sunday in our historical venue. Emanuel Salvador (violin) and Ronaldo Rolim (piano) played two excellent works by the author of Harnasie: Metopes Op. 29 and Myths Op. 30, as well as Sonata for violin and piano No. 4 by the Brazilian composer Camargo Guarnieri (1907-1993).

This outstanding evening performance presented the Portuguese-born violinist and the Brazilian pianist as avid chamber musicians and enthusiasts of Szymanowski’s music. Their interpretations of music by the master from Tymoshivka delighted the audience with balanced virtuosity, attractive sound, extraordinary expressiveness, and, most of all, fantastically varied dynamics.
