Cascais MPQ
Moscow Piano Quartet (MPQ) was created in 1989 on the initiative of Alexei Eremine and Guenrikh Elessine. Its first concert took place on 25 January 1990 at the Iermolova House-Museum in Moscow. In the same city, he performed at the ‘Dekabrskie Vetcherá’ (‘December Nights’) Festival, directed by Sviatoslav Richter. The influence of the great master Valentin Berlinski (cellist of the Borodine Quartet) is noteworthy, especially in terms of careful tuning, rich sonorities and in-depth knowledge of the works played.
Jill Lawson
Luso-American pianist Jill Lawson was born in Mexico in 1974 and grew up in Belgium. She is currently based in Portugal.
Jill learned how to read music before she learned the alphabet. Today she speaks five languages fluently, but still prefers to communicate through music rather than through words. Her music provides her with a much richer vocabulary, and it lies closer to her heart. Her life experiences in the last few years have helped to further enrich her range of interpretation abilities. She feels that her way of playing has become more natural, and because of this when performing she feels almost at one with the public.
CAMERATA ATLÂNTICA
