About

The rare dual talent of the pianist and cellist Elena Gaponenko was readily apparent at an early stage: it was at the age of four that she began playing both instruments. Elena Gaponenko considers herself a kind of translator through whom music flows; she makes the sonic essence of the coded messages contained within it accessible to the public. She herself designates the stage as her calling, and feels the greatest fulfilment when the music appear as “pure music” and technical realisation is utterly subjected to the musical content.
