Video: Xu Xiaonan Performing at the 2014 Castelfidardo Festival - Italyby Harley Jones |
Xu Xiaonan, 2012 Coupe Mondiale winner and 2012 Castelfidardo Premio winner performed a concert at the recent 2014 Castelfidardo Festival. Video 1: Musical Toys by Sofia Gubaidulina. Xu Xiaonan performed 6 movements: - Mechanical Accordion - Magic Round the Boat - The Magic Fish - Song of the Fisherman - Slide with Little Bells - The Drummers Video 2: The Holberg Suite, Op. 40 by Edvard Grieg 1st and 5th movments. The Holberg Suite was originally composed for the piano and was adapted for string orchestra a year later. Please excuse some noises from a baby! A father came with his baby and sat very close to the camera. Within seconds, the baby made the solo concert into a duet!!!! After some pointing at the camera, the father took his baby away. Hopefully the baby will, in the future play the accordion and play it as well as his duet partner Xu Xiaonan. The concert (but not the baby) was sponsored by Pigini srl. Other works from this concert will be published next week. |
