Renowned pianist Horacio Lavandera is preparing to reconnect with the Misiones public in an evening that seeks to break down the barriers between genres and eras. This Friday, August 8, the Teatro Lírico at Parque del Conocimiento will host “Sounds of the Eternal,” a performance that innovatively connects maestros like Beethoven and Mahler with rock icons like The Beatles and Gustavo Cerati, culminating with a heartfelt tribute to Cocomarola’s chamamé.
“Sounds of the Eternal” is a recent project that, interestingly, premiered and was applauded at prestigious classical music festivals in Uruguay. “About 30 years ago, a project like this would have been widely resisted,” the pianist reflects. “But the generations approaching classical music are already generations that have danced to The Beatles.” For Lavandera, this proposal is an invitation, especially for younger audiences, to discover that musical structures can be broken to seek new paths.
A Tribute to the Master of Chamamé
The show in Posadas will have a significant local component: a tribute to one of the pillars of chamamé, Tránsito Cocomarola. The idea arose after a conversation with Walter Bordón, a producer from Chaco, who conveyed the importance of the genre in the region.
In a recent conversation, Lavandera revealed the guiding thread behind this bold repertoire. “The Beatles were the centerpiece of the program,” the musician explained. Starting with the legendary Liverpool band, he began to weave a web of musical connections that spans centuries.
The concert will not only be an exercise in fusion, but also a demonstration of virtuosity. The program includes one of the most monumental works in the piano repertoire: Beethoven’s “Diabelli Variations,” a piece of approximately 50 minutes that represents a great challenge for the performer.
