 6.220602 Romantic Music for Violin and Guitar (Chen Yi - Violin / Lars Hannibal - Guitar) With the romantic charm of the violin and the tender sounds of the guitar, a world of melody unfolds. There is an intimate quality to both of these instruments – their elegantly carved shapes reminiscent of the female form. When played together, their sounds compliment each other – the endless song of the violin, accompanied by the gentle strumming of a guitar is the perfect serenade, their tender duet framed by silence. The music selected by Tina Chen and Hannibal for this recital is the soundtrack for a day dream, or the twilight accompaniment for a romantic dinner. The emphasis is on Melody – beautiful, finely arched musical lines that reach beyond the pressures of everyday life and transport you, to a quiet realm of song, warmly and realistically recorded in SACD, Super Audio Sound! This reocrding also marks the CD debut of the charismatic, young concert violinist , Chen Yi, was the Gold Medal winner at the China International Violin competition (2008).
