Seri de vară cu pian. Nistru.

Summer has arrived,
Cover my heart with something,
With some SPF 50,
Or better yet, with your shade.

I think the magic of summer lies in its evenings.

If you're in the city, in the evening the sun casts beautiful shadows between the buildings, the concrete cools down, the streetlights come on, the engines fall silent, and somehow everything becomes calmer.

If you're in the countryside or close to nature, the air cools, the crickets, frogs (and mosquitoes!) emerge from their hiding places, and another act of summer begins.

To these already wonderful summer-evening scenes, I thought of adding one more element — the piano. Beautiful music (and not only music!) at the piano. Nothing complicated, just light and peaceful. Something cold in your glass, and every now and then a sigh — whether from pleasure or from the nostalgia we'll feel when we remember these evenings.

The main course of the program is Tchaikovsky's The Seasons, a cycle of 12 pieces dedicated to the months of the year. In the original edition, each piece was accompanied by a poetic epigraph selected by the editor of the magazine that commissioned the work, Nikolay Bernard. The pianist will read the poems (in Russian) and perform the pieces (in the language of music)

And for dessert, we'll choose whatever feels right — perhaps some Chopin, perhaps some Debussy. We'll see how we feel.

Open doors: 17:30 — feel free to come earlier, spend some time by the Dniester, have a meal, stretch out on the grass.

The concert begins at 19:30 and lasts approximately 90 minutes.

P.S. If it rains heavily (although it seems we've already had quite enough rain this year), we'll move indoors to Villa Drago. If it's only a light drizzle, we'll put on our rain ponchos (no umbrellas) and listen with the gentle sound of rain in the background.

That's all. See you soon!
