About the programme:
Opening of the concert: Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome. We are Soleá Clarinet Quartet, and today we would like to share with you a simple idea. Our concert is called “Singing Without Words”, and it begins with a question: What does it really mean to sing? Do we need words to sing? Do we even need a human voice? This afternoon, we invite you to explore that idea through the sound of the clarinet, an instrument that breathes, shapes phrases, and expresses itself in a way that often feels very close to the human voice. Throughout this concert, we will travel through different musical worlds, discovering different ways of singing without using a single word. We begin with the music of Astor Piazzolla. Tango has always lived between instrumental music and song. Sometimes it is sung, sometimes it is not, but it always carries something deeply vocal in its rhythm, its phrasing, and its emotion. In Nine Tangos, each piece opens a different window. From the mystery of Misteriosa Vida, to the intimate voice of Yo canto un tango, from the distant memories of Recuerdo New York, to the timeless beauty of Oblivion, each tango suggests a different place, a different moment, a different story. There is passion, nostalgia, energy, tension, and sometimes even humor. Through all of them, the clarinet becomes a voice that speaks directly to us, without using a single word. With Histoire du Tango, that journey becomes a journey through time. Like every musical language, tango has changed, grown, and transformed through the years. In Bordel 1900, Café 1930, and Night-Club 1960, Piazzolla takes us through different moments in its history, showing us how the voice of tango evolves while never losing its soul. We hope you enjoy this first part.
Beginning of the second half: Welcome back. In the first part of the concert, we explored a very intimate kind of singing through the world of tango, where melody can feel personal, direct, and almost spoken, but also, as we have heard, capable of transporting us to different places, different stories, and even different times. Now, in this second part, that same voice takes on a new dimension. Through the music of Mozart, Rossini, Bizet, and Puccini, we enter a world where singing becomes larger, brighter, and full of character.In The Magic Flute, Mozart reminds us that even silence has extraordinary power, and that space, breath, and expectation are also part of singing. With Rossini, we meet one of opera’s most unforgettable characters, as the famous Figaro proudly declares himself to be the finest barber in all of Seville, with music full of brilliance, wit, and energy. In Bizet’s Carmen, singing becomes rhythm, movement, color, and pure character, full of life and passion. And in Puccini, we find another kind of voice, deeply lyrical, warm, sincere, and full of emotion.Together, these composers show us how music can sing on a larger scale, with drama, character, elegance, and emotion. And once again, without a single word.
Before the final piece: Before our final piece, we would simply like to say thank you for sharing this journey with us. Throughout this concert, we have explored different voices: the intimate voice of tango, the expressive voice of opera, and the many ways music can breathe, speak, and sing through four clarinets. To close this journey, we return to our own musical roots with the intermezzo from La boda de Luis Alonso by Gerónimo Giménez. This is a very special piece for us. It brings us back home, to Spain, to our culture, our traditions, and the music that has been part of our lives since we were children. After everything we have heard today, this music reminds us of something very simple: Singing is not only about words.It is about sharing.It is about connection. And above all, it is about bringing people together. Thank you very much… and we hope you enjoy our final piece.
