Q.Festival - Portugese Music - Concert No.5

Sérgio Azevedo, piano and composition

"The Unbearable Lightness " Sérgio Azevedo plays Azevedo and Janáček

The novel The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera, adapted for the film by Philip Kaufman with music by Leoš Janáček, is the motto of this original recital in which Janáček's piano music is combined with the music of Sérgio Azevedo. It is music that is related to the aesthetic and affective world of both composers. Life, death, love, people, nature and its dense paths, insects and animals, memory, loss, splendour and the natural and psychological complexity of human life come together in these intense and oneiric miniatures.
