about
A new interpretation to Frédéric Chopin's Nocturne in C-sharp minor.
Is it possible to convert the single into the double; to make a classical solo a new duet? Is time linear? Could it be plausible that carving through time is easier than reaching someone's heart?
The extrovert viola is accustomed to the quartet family and knows only company. She is trying to make the introvert piano, who thrives from solitude, into her romantic partner. But a relationship cannot survive when all the compromising is one-sided.The piano will stubbornly remain exactly as it has always been, the viola will grow tired of dancing alone, and at the end of the day their ways will inevitably part. The musical experiment was a success. The relationship, a failure. Could the historical abyss be easier to cross over than the romantic? If you're sensitive you can try and decipher exactly where in the piece the viola reaches her breaking point.
*Please listen to the original Nocturne to fully appreciate the interpretation.
