In this concert\, our string ensemble forms the cen tral artistic force of the program. The ensemble interprets the world-reno wned cycles 'The Four Seasons' by Vivaldi and Piazzolla in a new arrangeme nt—entirely for strings\, with the addition of a guitar. The guitar plays a special role: in Vivaldi's work\, it replaces the harpsichord part (bass o continuo)\, while in Piazzolla's music\, it adds a rhythmic and harmonic pulse\, reminiscent of the sound of the bandoneon.\n\nThe project was fou nded by Alik Lysiuk and Elizabeth Yakovenko. The musicians bring together extensive international experience\, including collaborations with leading composers\, artists\, and producers. These collaborations include partner ships with Hans Zimmer\, Rusanda Panfili\, Florian Christl\, Maria Yaremak \, Matthias G. Kendlinger\, Snow Owl\, and other leading figures in the co ntemporary music scene.
