Al Granada Theatre di Santa Barbara grande successo il 16 e 17 gennaio per il nuovo brano per violino, violoncello e orchestra di Cristian Carrara “Machpelah”, con la Santa Barbara Symphony diretta da Nir Kabaretti e come solisti la nostra Francesca Dego e Robert deMaine, primo violoncello della Los Angeles Philharmonic.
"Machpelah is the Hebrew name for the Cave of the Patriarchs, the place in the heart of the old city of Hebron in Israel's West Bank where there are the double tombs of Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, and Jacob and Leah, considered to be the Patriarchs and Matriarchs of the Jewish people. Inspired by this place, my double concerto is a hymn about love between men and women. In this work, the solo violin and cello in effect discuss love. I wanted to celebrate the eternity of love, but also highlight the possibility of peace, of dialogue, between cultures and religions, especially in this time of conflict. Love can defeat fear." (Cristian Carrara, dal Programma di Sala)
