The concert For Sofia is dedicated to the memory of the composer Sofia Gubaidulina. Her creativity had a decisive influence on the music of the 20th and 21st centuries and continues to inspire today. This program features works by female composers who - like Gubaidulina - have opened up new paths for the cello as a solo instrument. The program includes three of the Ten Preludes by Sofia Gubaidulina, the Solo Sonata by Lera Auerbach, Improvisus by Dhora Leka, Haniotikos by Efi Markoulaki, a piece from Four Pieces by Tania León and the Sonata for solo cello by Khadija Zeynalova. These works demonstrate the diversity of contemporary compositions for cello and explore the tonal, expressive and structural possibilities of the instrument. The concert pays tribute to the artistic significance of Sofia Gubaidulina and at the same time introduces other important voices in contemporary music.
