Gunta Ābele. She was born for the cello. A magnificent, powerful musician of great talent with a wide smile and a big heart. This queen of the cello and her husband, the virtuoso pianist Giovanni Fornasini, will create a playful and harmonious duo in an exclusive concert at the Paliesius Manor. The musicians have a precise sense of each other, and the complex passages are even more interesting to listen to because when one of them is playing very strongly and expressively, the other turns into a silent background – and vice versa. The music will include Spanish songs by Carlos Guastavino and compositions by Fauré, Dvorak, Mendelssohn, and Schumann. This summer programme will uplift, bring joy and fill the hearts of the audience with positive emotions.
Gunta Ābele has won many competitions. In 2013 and 2019, she was nominated for the Latvian Grand Music Awards. As a soloist and member of ensembles, she has performed in many European venues and participated in renowned festivals.
