The Fantasy is a musical form that has stood the test of time. From the Renaissance to the present day, composed for solo instruments, ensembles or orchestras, in very different styles, fantasies have only one common characteristic: the composer's imagination is at the heart of their composition.

Juliette Dournaud and Flore-Elise Capelier are two French pianists and long-time friends who share a passion for the four-handed piano. Since 2017, they had the chance to be studying in the same piano class in Paris (Nicolas Mallarte, Pôle Supérieur de Paris Boulogne Billancourt, France). It gave them the opportunity to get musically closer, to discuss about music, interpretation and esthetic and they decided to start a four-handed collaboration. In 2019, the duo is notably programmed at the Festival Debussy (Argenton-sur-Creuse /France) for four concerts.

The French duo give their first concert in Finland and it will be their first performance of the magnificent Schubert Fantasy.
 
Duration: 1 h 10

In cooperation with the Sibelius Academy.
