Famous musicians on the stages of Brasov

On Friday, July 30, the third edition of the SoNoRo Musikland Festival starts in Brasov. The opening concert will take place at the Brasov County Museum of History, in the courtyard of the Bastion of the Weavers, one of the emblematic heritage buildings of the old city, and is part of the summer agenda of the Bastion of the Artists.

Outstanding musicians will perform a wide-ranging program in the 15 concerts, which will take place until August 8 in towns and villages in Brasov, Mures and Sibiu counties.

The opening concert program includes works by George Enescu, Isaac Albéniz, Enrique Granados, Francisco Tárrega, Isaac Albéniz, Fritz Kreisler, Gaspar Cassadó, Georg Friedrich Händel and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, performed by musicians Nicolas Dautricourt (violin), Ioana Cristina Goicea (violin), Valentin Șerban (violin), Răzvan Popovici (viola), Justus Grimm (cello), Diana Ketler (piano), Mara Dobrescu (piano), Ion Bogdan Ștefănescu (flute), Pablo Barragán Hernández (clarinet) and Alberto Mesirca (guitar).

"We are very happy that SoNoRo Musikland manages to bring outstanding musicians to the Romanian public again this year, but an even greater joy is to have among the artists of this edition three former SoNoRo Interferences SoNoRo scholarship holders, who have proven that through hard work and perseverance they can achieve absolutely remarkable results. They are the violinist from Brasov, Valentin Șerban, a SoNoRo Interferences scholarship holder for several years and Young Master of the SoNoRo Interferences educational program, who won this year's grand prize in the violin section of the George Enescu International Competition. Also, violinist Ioana Cristina Goicea, who is the laureate of several international competitions, and in October 2020, at the age of just 27, was appointed violin professor at the prestigious Academy of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna (Universität für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Wien). In addition, in the second part of the festival, the audience will enjoy the presence of Andrei Ionita - one of the most highly acclaimed young cellists in the world today, an outstanding talent with brilliant technique and musicianship. His greatest achievement remains his victory in 2015 at the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, becoming the first Romanian to win the gold medal at this competition, among the most significant in the world.

We guarantee all those who will follow us at this edition of the festival, a musical royalty, performed at the highest level!" - says Răzvan Popovici, director of the SoNoRo Musikland Festival.
