Performances of Georgi's pieces
|
'Une Pierre' for soprano and vibraphone
- a song for Sara Moreira Marques and Renato Penêda Written in 2013 originally for piano and voice - A year later Georgi composed a new version with vibraphone. Proud of the duo which performs this song so delicate and powerful. Hope to hear many more performances by them. |

Hinse Mutter: Dirge pour Charlie
My good colleague friend, Hinse Mutter wrote this piece as a reaction to the brutal happenings in Paris. With respect to all. Let there be change.
SINKING - a one act opera for the Dutch National Opera Academy |
Dialogues from my head- mini opera for two
|
|
|
|
In January, 2013 Sztojanov had the premiere of his opera, 'Sinking',
especially written and performed by the Dutch National Opera Academy.
The story observes 5 existing people's reactions in an imaginary train, going to un unknown destination (as symbol of humanity's faith) in the fear that the end is near.
The libretto was created by the composer asking 5 people (including himself) to take part in an experimental way of creating text together through a Role Play Game, played through emails. In this virtual world - prepared by Georgi - the characters have to react as themselves, adding a documentary taste to the plot.
