"MUSIC IN SIANA. More than a waltz for two"

Pablo Siana
14/05/2024

Chamber Hall of the "Príncipe Felipe" Auditorium: Interdisciplinary Chamber Music Series of Oviedo (CIMCO). Dúo del Valle: "Vals for Two", Víctor del Valle (piano) and Luis del Valle (piano).

The "Malagueño" brothers began with three works by Poulenc... Impeccable tuning and uniformity of tone despite playing two different models of Steinway© with distinct sonorities, but in the hands of the brothers, closing our eyes, we heard a single instrument played by twenty fingers... four hands commanded as if guided by a single soul.

... with Scaramouche, Op. 165 (1937) by Milhaud, a true visual and sonic spectacle.

... a long hour of French performance created in "The Vienna of Spain" by these universal brothers.

LA CRÓNICA DE BADAJOZ. Piano four hands

This concert modality is not frequent, both in terms of composition and performance. It is different from the works for two pianos, since instead of two keyboards the performers have to share one. Well, last Thursday at the Palacio de Congresos de Badajoz and on Friday at the one in Mérida, the Orquesta de Extremadura, directed by its owner, Andrés Salado, addressed a program entirely dedicated to the 19th century composer Johannes Brahms, in which The "Concierto for four-handed piano and string orchestra" was performed with the brothers Víctor and Luis del Valle as exceptional interpreters. With a brilliant artistic record, the Duo del Valle showed their excellent rapport with an impeccable performance. In Badajoz, before the fourth and last movement, there was a brief interruption, both pianists retiring due to a slight indisposition of one of them, joining minutes later to conclude their excellent intervention with a tremendous finale.

The Center for Performing Arts and Music (CAEM) lived a memorable musical evening this Wednesday. The Castilla y León Symphony Orchestra (OSCYL) returned to what was once one of its satellite venues and once again left a mastery of their good work and their great interpretative imprint, which, added to the virtuosity they display in each of their concerts the brothers Víctor and Luis del Valle, at the piano and as soloists, turned the centenary concert of LA GACETA into a delight for the eyes and, above all, for the ear, loaded with brilliance, technique, solvency and a certain dose of self-confidence. The evening was opened by the piano duo, supported by the OSCYL, with the concerto for two pianos and orchestra in D Minor by Poulenc, which in the four hands of the Del Valle brothers sounded wonderful. And with the audience already delivered, the duo from Málaga together with the Castilla y León Symphony did not want to miss the success of this presentation in Salamanca and offered to a packed audience neither more nor less than the concert for two pianos and orchestra number 10 of Mozart, the great classic among the classics. A real daring, but also a success, since the interpretation was masterful, as the audience recognized with their applause. And it is not for less, the Del Valle brothers stand out for mixing rigor, passion and technical mastery in their interpretations. A successful combination.

El Confidencial. Malaga has a special light

The evening light was darkening the landscape when the concert began, which soon announced that we were going to live a night worthy of those of many years ago. As before... Genius is the power granted to a few, who are the ones who go down in history, to liberate the beauty contained in pressing a key and produce an instantaneous, ephemeral, unrepeatable, deadly chord. Beauty always contains the death drive. The Del Valle brothers, on two pianos or four hands, exhibited perfect technique and an overflowing soul. With passion, as if in a trance, with joy on their faces, with beautiful gestures.
From the deeply lyrical slow tempo of Schubert's Romanticism to the precision of the explosion of Impressionist colours, which would have astonished Ravel himself...
