Piano-Lounge 7: Sculpting Spaces

In the organizer's words:

Xi Chen invites violinist Muzi Lyu to the seventh Piano Lounge concert. In "Sculpting Space", Muzi Lyu and Xi Chen create an evening in which music becomes the art of spatial design. Sounds shape, flow and expand the space - a fascinating artistic exploration of the idea that music is not just sound, but a medium that sculpts space itself.

The program begins with Toru Takemitsu's filigree Distance de Fée (1951), whose delicate tones create a fragile, almost ethereal soundscape. This is followed by Witold Lutosławski's Subito (1992), a work full of sudden energy that permeates the room with unexpected impulses. The final piece is John Adams' Road Movies (1995), a work of minimal music that uses repetitive structures and constant movement to keep the space in constant transformation - like a musical journey through ever-changing landscapes.
