The piano is an instrument of limitless possibilities! However, even the most outstanding soloist is limited by two hands, ten fingers, and one heart. But when this is doubled, the music transforms into a rich orchestral palette.

The genre of piano duet performance has proven its resilience, evolving from amateur music-making to a refined concert art form. Throughout history, piano duets have played a vital role in aesthetic education and the world of musical performance.

This evening, the duo of pianists Sara Assabayeva and Shakhizada Kulseitova will present the exquisite works of Maurice Ravel, Gabriel Fauré and Darius Milhaud some of the brightest representatives of French modernism. Their vibrant interpretations will bring beloved French orchestral classics to life.
