MÉLODIES D'AILLEURS
Soprano Viviane Hasler and pianist Maren Gamper have been performing together for many years. As a duo, they develop programs with songs and solo piano works, linked by improvisations on the piano. The duo was selected as a Pro Argovia Artist 2020/21 and performs regularly at concerts and festivals in France and Switzerland.
In their programs, the two musicians do not simply present a sequence of pieces, but interweave them in concert through improvisations. It is important to them to introduce the audience to lesser-known pieces from the huge song repertoire. They like to combine lyrical melodies with surprising, funny and quirky pieces.
Their repertoire includes works by Debussy, Chausson, Chaminade, Elgar, Schubert, Wolf, Poulenc, Bizet and Hahn. A much-played favorite work is Leonarnd Bernstein's "Bonne cuisine", in which he sets recipes to music in a witty and virtuoso manner. Concert arias by W.A. Mozart and the Ophelia songs by contemporary composer Wolfgang Rihm were added to the program as breaks.
