The concert of the musicAeterna soloists will feature chamber and instrumental music composed by three resident composers of musicAeterna and Dom Radio prior to their collaboration with musicAeterna.

The author of the idea of the concert, Andreas Moustoukis, decided to present to the public works for academic instrumentation – piano solo, piano trio, and piano quintet. The programme includes three compositions by Cyrille Arkhipov, as well as a piano trio by Alexey Retinsky, and a piano quintet written by Andreas Moustoukis in memory of Alfred Schnittke.

In such a strict field as modern academic music, not only radically different compositional strategies, stylistic and linguistic features of each of the authors become particularly clear, but also what unites them. The title of the programme contains a question that will help the audience to discover the subtle settings that bring the work of the three composers closer together, 'Does music sound when there is no one else in the room?'
