Programs
Three ways into
the sound.
Most soloists tour a repertoire. Cristian tours a question, how a violin actually makes its sound, and answers it three ways: from inside the acoustics workshop, from the Romanian repertoire he grew up in, and from the Hollywood scoring stages where he records.
Half programme, full evening, or with a pre-concert talk; repertoire and length adapt to the room.
A lecture-recital on how a violin actually works: wood, strings, frequencies; built from thirteen years inside the Oberlin Acoustics Workshop and from string development with Thomastik-Infeld. Playing alternates with explanation, and two instruments, modern and baroque, are compared in the room.
The Romanian repertoire as birthright rather than novelty: Enescu, Porumbescu, Dinicu, and the road out of Bucharest that became the album From Bucharest to Kansas City. A recital programme with a narrative spine.
The film-music programme, drawn from the sessions at Capitol Records, Fox and Warner Brothers; what the violin does inside a score, played by someone who has experienced first hand the old Hollywood sound.
Presenters don’t buy credentials. They buy programs.
