Joey Roukens: In Unison
On May 14, 2027, the Belgrade Philharmonic Orchestra presents a refined evening of orchestral music, highlighting Joey Roukens’ captivating concerto In Unison. Set in the historic Grand Hall of the Kolarac Foundation at 20:00, this concert brings together conductor Nil Venditti and the VooDoo Piano Duo for a beautifully balanced program.
The centerpiece of the evening is In Unison by Dutch composer Joey Roukens. Known for his seamless blending of eclectic styles, Roukens creates an intricate musical landscape where the two pianos move from perfect synchronicity into a subtle dialogue with the orchestra. It is a thoughtful exploration of unity and contrast, making this performance a truly special occasion.
The program opens with the radiant warmth of Carl Nielsen’s Helios Overture and concludes with the sweeping lyricism of Jean Sibelius’ Symphony No. 2.
