‘La mélancolie, c’est le bonheur d’être triste.’ wrote French author Victor Hugo. So welcome to this evening of reveling in black bile. One expects little hurrah from Arvo Pärt anyway, but the adagio from Mozart’s second piano sonata that he transcribed on the passing of a close friend cuts particularly deep. The famous andante from Schubert’s swan song and George Enescu’s miniature ‘Serenade lointaine’ further spoil our remaining optimism. Those who are still smiling after Piazzolla’s four Argentinean seasons, however, better contact a cardiologist. For theirs doesn’t work anymore.
