“Cinema at the Piano: Star Wars, Chopin, Piazzolla, and More”

A Concert by Horacio Lavandera

In this program, the piano becomes a bridge between two worlds: classical music and film. “Cinema at the Piano” invites us on a musical journey that ranges from the emotional and technical depth of Johann Sebastian Bach to the epic and evocative melodies of John Williams, passing through the romantic intensity of Frédéric Chopin and the innovation of Astor Piazzolla and Osvaldo Golijov.

The first part of the concert immerses us in the universe of Bach, whose masterpieces, such as the Chromatic Fantasy and the Goldberg Variations (BWV 988), reveal the extraordinary harmonic richness and structural brilliance that characterize the German composer.
