SUMMARY:Wooden Echoes
DESCRIPTION:Cluj Chamber Music Festival\, now in its 4th edition\, proposes a new perspective on chamber music — an open space where tradition and experimentation coexist. The programme moves across styles and eras\, from Renaissance polyphony to jazz and crossover projects\, bringing together international artists\, established musicians\, and emerging performers. Set within a network of unconventional venues — from churches to inner courtyards and alternative spaces — the festival creates connections and invites audiences to rediscover chamber music beyond conventional frameworks. \nThe concert Wooden Echoes brings to the forefront a rarely encountered sonic concept: a marimba ensemble functioning as a single musical organism. Four instruments with a deep and warm resonance come together to create a dense acoustic space\, where timbre becomes the central element. \nThe programme features contemporary works written for percussion ensembles\, signed by composers such as Emmanuel Séjourné\, Nebojša Živković\, and Mark Ford. Latin rhythms\, jazz influences\, and repetitive structures intertwine with a carefully calibrated writing style\, offering a dynamic journey in which energy and precision remain in constant balance. \nAbout the artists \nThe Wooden Echoes Ensemble\, formed by Amelia Trifu\, Michael Blescun\, Patrick Cojerean\, and Philip Goron\, brings together four musicians with shared experience in percussion ensembles and diverse artistic projects. Their current collaboration builds on a long-standing artistic journey\, shaping this formation into a coherent and well-defined project in which each individual contribution supports a unified sonic aesthetic. \nWe invite you on Wednesday\, May 13\, at 7:00 PM\, to the Cinema Victoria for a concert that offers a unique sonic experience\, where rhythm\, resonance\, and space become essential. \nCluj Chamber Music Festival – 4th edition – does not propose a formula. It proposes a state of mind.A festival that does not tell you how to listen to chamber music\, but invites you to rediscover it.

SUMMARY:Dall'opera italiana al jazz
DESCRIPTION:Cluj Chamber Music Festival\, now in its 4th edition\, proposes a new perspective on chamber music — an open space where tradition and experimentation coexist. The programme moves across styles and eras\, from Renaissance polyphony to jazz and crossover projects\, bringing together international artists\, established musicians\, and emerging performers. Set within a network of unconventional venues — from churches to inner courtyards and alternative spaces — the festival creates connections and invites audiences to rediscover chamber music beyond conventional frameworks. \nThe concert Dall’opera italiana al jazz proposes a musical journey across the 20th century\, from the roots of jazz to its mature and widely popular forms. The GLEM Clarinet Quartet presents a dynamic programme in which classical\, operatic\, and jazz influences intersect within a fluid and accessible musical discourse. \nFrom ragtime and early jazz to swing\, cool jazz\, and European influences\, the repertoire brings together works by George Gershwin\, Irving Berlin\, Dave Brubeck\, and Benny Goodman\, alongside insertions inspired by Italian musical culture. The stylistic contrasts and rhythmic energy transform this concert into a vivid musical journey\, in which the clarinet fully reveals its versatility. \nAbout the artists \nThe GLEM Clarinet Quartet\, founded in 2022\, brings together four musicians who continuously explore new repertoire directions\, from transcriptions of classical works to crossover projects. The ensemble has been invited to important festivals and concert seasons in Italy and has collaborated with prestigious artists and institutions\, rapidly shaping a flexible and open artistic identity. \nWe invite you on Wednesday\, May 13\, at 8:00 PM\, to the DaVinci Restaurant for a concert that offers an energetic and relaxed experience\, where chamber music meets the rhythm and freedom of jazz. \nCluj Chamber Music Festival – 4th edition – does not propose a formula. It proposes a state of mind.A festival that does not tell you how to listen to chamber music\, but invites you to rediscover it.
