The recipient of recent awards in international competitions, Pedro Borges is a rising figure within the Portuguese musical world. In his debut recital in the Casa da Música Piano Series, he will take us on a journey through the instrument’s canonical repertoire where the influence of popular music and the art of counterpoint can be observed. Haydn used a traditional Austrian song as the motif for his Fantasia. Traditional music shaped Bartók’s style in a unique way, giving rise to an unparalleled musical language. The omnipresence of Johann Sebastian Bach is noticeable in the works of Brahms and Busoni, virtuosos in search of a synthesis. Breaking with the past, Images forms a catalogue of pianistic Modernism, exploring elements such as timbre and resonance in a meaningful way.
