Francesco Di Rosa, Plavens Trio

There is a certain magic that often unfolds in chamber music. Instruments of wood, brass, and horsehair seem to come alive, engaging in conversations and playful exchanges: the viola mimics the piano, the double bass teases the violin, and at times, the entire ensemble conspires against the lone oboe. In this program, the soloists of the Orchestra of the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia bring to life the rich dialogue embedded in some of music history’s greatest masterpieces. From Schubert, Mozart, and Beethoven to the passionate rhythms of Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla, the journey culminates in Gabriel’s Oboe, Ennio Morricone’s unforgettable theme from The Mission, starring Robert De Niro.
