July 15
Giuliani & Bartók

In this musical hour from the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival, we bring you a pair of dazzling duos. Violinist Yura Lee and pianist George Li join forces to perform the Violin Sonata No. 1 that Béla Bartók composed, in 1921, as he, and the world around him, began to recover from the First World War. Juxtaposing the Bartók, the broadcast opens with international guitar sensation Łukasz Kuropaczewski and violinist Danbi Um. They play the genial Grand duo concertante in A Major that the Italian composer Maura Giuliani crafted in 1817.
