The Pocket Series stands as a tribute to the greatness of concerts for soloists, where the virtuous combination of individual talent and delicate musical accompaniment stands out.

This innovative cycle by the group Solístico de Santiago emphasizes the interpretation of masterpieces from the classical and contemporary repertoire. Presented by great soloists who dazzle with their technique and sensitivity, the program invites the public to immerse themselves in an unparalleled listening experience within an intimate and welcoming setting.

In the "pocket format", the essence of the concert is enhanced by reducing the number of musicians on stage. This allows every note, nuance and emotion to be perceived with unique impact and clarity. Despite the greater simplicity of the instrumentation, the standards of excellence and the strength of the artistic commitment that distinguish the group are preserved.

The cycle is a celebration of virtuosity and an invitation to connect deeply with music in its purest form. The complicity between the soloist and the audience becomes the common thread of an emotional journey that spans different eras and musical styles, promising not only to entertain, but also to educate and inspire.

17 Jul | First concert

The cycle begins with the majestic aria "Alto Giove" from the opera Polifemo, composed by Nicola Porpora. The countertenor Cristhopher Osorio, in his interpretation, makes the richness of the human voice resonate, evoking the strength of a spring that springs to life.

Next, the freshness of the Concerto for Oboe and Violin in D minor by Johann Sebastian Bach, with soloists such as Claudia Fonseca and Macarena Ferrer, will transport the audience to a soundscape where melodies flow like silent currents, leaving a trail of beauty and harmony.

In this musical journey, the Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in A Major KV 488 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, performed by María Hannemann Vera, is presented as a vibrant torrent. This work offers a dynamic conversation between the piano and the orchestral instruments, which together create an effect similar to that of a vigorously descending waterfall.

Beethoven's Romance in F major No. 2, presented by Paula Barrera, invites the audience to immerse themselves in a reflective atmosphere, like the calm before a storm, while George Frideric Handel's "Rejoice Greatly", performed by Barbara Ramírez, provides a respite of joy, like drops of water that shine in the sun, filling the space with its light and joy.

The first concert will be completed with "Exploration: in search of Alicanto" by Jean Barahona, where soloist Karla Rodríguez will take us on a fascinating musical search, symbolizing the human desire to discover the magical in the world around us

26 Aug | Second concert

The second concert recognizes the intimacy of musical interaction in an ensemble setting. The Trio Sonata in G major by J. S. Bach highlights this dynamic, where the dialogue between the violin, the viola da gamba and the cello creates a fluid and enveloping atmosphere, reminiscent of a stream where each instrument contributes its characteristic tonal color.

In contrasting musical phrasing, the Concerto for Two Cellos in G minor by Antonio Vivaldi, with Cristian Peralta and Franco Espinoza as soloists, will allow us to appreciate the harmony and tension of the sound dialogue, analogous to the currents that intertwine in a river.

Vivaldi's "Cessate, omai cessate," performed by Cristhopher Osorio, will invite the audience to experience a torrent of emotions, a manifestation of desire and longing that, like water, moves in an ever-changing course.

Afterwards, the majestic interpretation of Joseph Haydn's Horn Concerto No. 1 in D major, conducted by Eugenio Cáceres, will immerse us in a sound dialogue that recalls the song of nature, while Poème op.25 for violin by Édouard Chausson, performed by Juan Canales, will envelop us in a sensual and melodic experience that recalls the softness of calm waters.

10 Sep | Third concert

The cycle will culminate in September with the emblematic work "The Four Seasons" by Vivaldi. Each concerto for violin, strings and basso continuo, performed by a talented group of soloists, will embody the emotions associated with each season: from the rebirth and freshness of spring to the melancholy and introspection of winter. This journey through the seasons invites the audience to reflect on the cycles of nature, which resonate in music in a similar way to how water shapes life itself.

Finally, the evening will be completed with the Tango for solo cello and string orchestra by José Bragato and the audacious Four Seasons of Buenos Aires by Astor Piazzolla, where the tango, like an urban river, transcends cultural limits and captures the effervescence of modern life.

The "Water Resonances" concert series not only celebrates the greatness of classical music, but also provides audiences with an opportunity to immerse themselves in an enriching aesthetic experience. Each performance will resonate, like the echo of waves in water, in the hearts of those who listen to them, inviting them to contemplate the deep interconnection between music and nature.
