Gábor Csalog Sundays – Dialogues with (the) Music
Chopin and the colours of darkness

Featuring:
Gábor Csalog – piano
Gergely Fazekas, musicologist

Frédéric Chopin was connected to darkness in a thousand ways: he loved the night, as his dreamily beautiful nocturnes show, but he was also attracted to the metaphorical darkness, as can be heard in his disturbingly sombre pieces, his sometimes quite distorted harmonies and strange melodies. In 1861, more than twenty years after Chopin's death, the music critic Hippolyte Barbedette wrote: "Chopin was a sick man who enjoyed suffering and did not want to be cured; he poured out his pain in irresistible forms – the sweet melancholy of his language expressed his sadness. [...] Chopin's music is essentially unhealthy. That is why it is so attractive and so dangerous." The critic was, of course, not – or only partly – right, for Chopin's music, even his dark music, is often healing and comforting. Gábor Csalog's concert will explore Chopin's dark world, both attractive and dangerous, through a selection of nocturnes, etudes and dances, and through a discussion in the first half of the evening, in which music historian Gergely Fazekas will be the pianist's partner.

Our offer


1940-ben a budapesti Operettszínházban bemutatóra készülődtek. Eisemann Mihály legújabb művét vitték színre, főszerepben Kiss Manyival. Az előadás elkezdődött és egyszer csak Kiss Manyi hangja töltötte be a teret: „Jaj de jó a habos sütemény…” Ugye, hogy ismerős? A szavakkal együtt rögtön bekúszik a dallam is. Eisemann darabja nem egy klasszikus operett, nincs hatalmas énekkara és tánckara. Amije viszont van, az a fülbemászó dallam és a magával ragadó történet Bán Sándor tenoristáról és az őt bálványozó bakfisokról.

„Egy mindenkiért – mindenki egyért!” - ki ne ismerné Athos, Porthos, Aramis és az ifjú D’Artagnan történetét? A muskétások kalandjai azonban most vadonatúj feldolgozásban ragadják magukkal a közönséget a Szegedi Szabadtéri Játékok következő, saját produkciójában.

Without ever knowing, the heroine of this Vincenzo Bellini opera performs death-defying feats at dizzying heights, while the singer tasked with portraying her is only too aware that hers is one of the bel canto repertoire’s most beautiful and risky roles.
