Presenting and producing classical music helps to pass on the great traditions, but developing and experimenting with them spells a real revolution. This is what the four young musical masters from the Raro Ensemble will demonstrate at Carnegie Hall on Feb. 16 as part of the SoNoRo Festival on Tour Program.
Razvan Popovici, a co-founder and viola player in the ensemble, shared with The Epoch Times his feelings and his outlook on classical music before the Manhattan debut.
“I play viola in the ensemble—a very important role—as viola consolidates the group in both the musical and personal sense. Usually, perhaps due to the simple fact that viola has a little less notes to play than the other instruments, viola players have more time and energy left to devote themselves to the management and human contacts—this is definitely a case with our group.”
The young violist believes that chamber music is the way to speak to modern audiences in the most intimate way.
“We all believe that chamber music is really our passion, where we bring together individual experiences and differences and find the common language.”
