Importante: Abbiamo avuto dei problemi tecnici con il modulo di prenotazione. Non sappiamo per quanto tempo ha durato il problema, ma adesso è risolto.

Il progetto PIANO SUMMER è il festival per eccellenza, un progetto che si è già affermato in otto anni e che ha attirato oltre 8000 visitatori. Una rete culturale che collega tra loro paesi come la Germania, l’Italia, la Serbia e il Sudafrica – e che, solo con la sua varietà geografica, porta con sé una varietà di prospettive … Un progetto culturale insolito, lontano dalle autostrade culturali d’Europa percorse in sicurezza con il loro folklore, che sembra inevitabile nei festival di musica classica, offre esperienze musicali di prim’ordine. Il pubblico ha l’opportunità di vivere da vicino le star del mondo e allo stesso tempo le notizie rinfrescanti della scena artistica.

Finora artisti come Natalia Gutmann, Gülsin Onay, Klaus Schilde, Miku Nishimoto e Goran Jurić hanno avuto la possibilità di mostrare le loro capacità sul nostro palcoscenico, e il festival non ha offerto solo accademie estive di successo, ma anche molte prime mondiali e programmi di sostegno per i più giovani.

Un festival che ha assegnato il premio dell’Unesco ad una sonnolenta città di provincia della Serbia meridionale, lontana dalla capitale, che oggi fa parte di una rete mondiale di 20 città creative nel campo della musica.

Il progetto comprende numerosi concerti, un’accademia estiva e concorsi per la promozione dei giovani talenti, un programma di artist-in-residence e un’iniziativa di rete creativa che permette ai giovani di tutto il mondo di partecipare, organizzare e fare esperienza in un progetto di questo tipo.

Finalmente, Piano Summer sta arrivando nel Salento! Seguendo la cancellazione della sua prima edizione in 2020 a causa della pandemia, abbiamo deciso di lasciarci guidare dall’ottimismo e di programmare questa nuova prima edizione di Piano Summer Salento per la fine agosto / l’inizio di settembre 2021. Il programma sarà adattato vs. quello che avremmo voluto presentarvi inizialmente, ma la cosa la più importante è di sfidare le condizioni e di portare la musica di nuovo sul palcoscenico.

Il mondo ha bisogno di arte e di bellezza per guarire. Il Salento, una regione che dipende molto dal turismo, avrà bisogno di attività come quella per riprendersi dal trauma e dai danni economici che questa crisi lascerà, come l’avranno gli artisti. Anche loro sono stati colpiti gravemente della cancellazione di tutta la loro attività e hanno perduto ogni fonte di reddito per un lungo periodo.  

Con quattro concerti nel Chiostro dei Carmelitani a Nardò ed uno nel Castello di Depressa, la nostra stagione inaugurale vi porterà un programma ben curato di musica di pianoforte interpretato di artisti conosciuti al livello internazionale. Speriamo che il pubblico – residenti locali e visitatori – si goderanno questa serie di concerti che si svolgerà in luoghi all’aperto e sotto le norme sanitarie vigenti. Grazie a tutti che ci hanno sostenuto fino adesso!

Don’t stop the music!

After completing her studies in Hanover with Professor Karl-Heinz Kämmerling, she received further important stimuli in Munich through working with Klaus Schilde, Andreas Schmidt. Her concerts in Germany and other European countries soon attracted wider recognition. Prizes at international competitions, among others in Porto, Vevey or at the Bach competition in Leipzig testify to the exceptional skill evident in her compelling piano performances.

Her sensitive articulation and musical understanding is brought to bear on a wide range of musical genres including piano chamber music. A number of recordings testify to the broad repertoire of the pianist, ranging from Bach to contemporary works. She places special emphasis upon the Romantic and Impressionist piano literature.

GÜLSIN ONAY

Gülsin Onay began playing the piano at the age of three, and gave her first public recital on Turkish Radio when she was six. With the aid of a special state scholarship she studied with Ahmed Adnan Saygun and Mithat Fenmen, and then in Paris, where her teachers includes Pierre Sancan, Monique Haas and Nadia Boulanger.. She graduated from the Paris Conservatoire at the age of 16, winning the prestigious “Premier Prix du Piano”, and prizes in top international competitions, including the Marguerite Long-Jacques Thibaud (in Paris) and the Ferruccio Busoni (in Bolzano), quickly followed. Gülsin Onay's subsequent, truly international career has spanned 80 countries across all continents, from Venezuela to Japan. She has given concerts in the major musical centres of the world. She has performed as a soloist with such leading orchestras as Dresden Staatskapelle, Philharmonia Orchestra, English Chamber Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic, Japan Philharmonic, Munich Radio Symphony, St Petersburg Philharmonic, Tokyo Symphony, Warsaw Philharmonic and Vienna Symphony Orchestras. Gülsin Onay's many festival appearances include Berlin, Warsaw, Granada, Mozartfest Würzburg, Newport, Schleswig-Holstein, Singapore and Istanbul.

Gülsin Onay is acknowledged worldwide as the definitive interpreter of the music of Ahmed Adnan Saygun, the leading Turkish composer of the 20th century, whose works feature prominently in her concerts and recordings, and whose 2nd Piano Concerto (which she premiered in Turkey and abroad) was dedicated to her. Other contemporary composers who have dedicated works to Gülsin Onay are Hubert Stuppner, Denis Dufour, Jean-Louis Petit, Muhiddin Dürrüoğlu-Demiriz, Marc-André Hamelin and Bujor Hoinic.

Gülsin Onay's over 20 recorded albums to date illustrate the breadth of her repertoire as well as her interpretive power, with solo works and concertos from Haydn and Mozart to the contemporary era. Her 2007 CD featuring live concert recordings of Tchaikovsky’s 1st and Rachmaninov’s 3rd Piano Concerto has been acclaimed by critics and virtuosi alike. In 2008 CPO released her recording of both Saygun concertos, to widespread critical acclaim. For the 250 anniversary of Beethoven's birth, Gülsin Onay has recorded 2 CDs of the composer's works. Many of her concerts have been broadcast on European radio and television, and in the USA on National Public Radio. During the 2020–2021 coronavirus pandemic, Gülsin Onay has become a regular performer on social media, where her livestreamed concerts have received several million views.
