Pan flutist Hanspeter Oggier and pianist Marina Vasilyeva play classical pieces and folk music. The focus is on the work "Trockne Blumen" by Schubert.
The program consists of classical works and works with folk motifs from Eastern Europe.
The central composition will be "Trockne Blumen" by Schubert - a piece that was originally written for flute and piano and is one of the most difficult pieces in the flute repertoire. In November 2022, the two artists recorded a CD in South Tyrol and will present this program on various stages throughout Switzerland.
Hanspeter Oggier, born in 1981, grew up in the Valais mountain village of St. Niklaus. He discovered the pan flute at the age of 8 and took lessons from the famous Romanian pan flutist Simion Stanciu, alias Syrinx, in Geneva at an early age. After completing his studies at the Swiss Music Pedagogical Association with a teaching and concert diploma (main subject teacher Kiyoshi Kasai), he was the first panflutist ever to be admitted to a music academy in Switzerland. He completed his studies with Janne Thomsen at the Lucerne University of Music with a "Master of Arts in Music with a Major in Classical Performance". He has won numerous prizes at competitions and from foundations. He has been teaching the pan flute as a major subject in Lucerne since 2011.
Hanspeter Oggier is an internationally sought-after soloist and chamber musician. He performs with the ensembles Fratres, Inversa and Il Suonar Parlante, among others. He has also worked with the pianist Marina Vasilyeva, the cellist Mathieu Rouquié, the lutenist Luca Pianca and the organist Sarah Brunner for many years. His repertoire ranges from the Renaissance to contemporary works, some of which are commissioned by him; he also works intensively with traditional music. Recently, the connection between early music and folk music has been at the center of his interest. He is convinced that numerous historical playing practices have been preserved in traditional music that has been handed down without writing. In order to bring these to bear and give the instrument back its original naturalness and language, he uses panpipes made in the old style.
Marina Vasilyeva was born in 1990 in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. She began playing the piano at the age of 6; her first teachers were Irina and Sergei Nazarov. She won prizes at various competitions at an early age. In 2012, she received the "Scholarship of the President of the Russian Federation for Education Abroad" and passed the entrance exam for the Bachelor's program at the Lucerne University of Music. She then completed her studies in solo performance, also in Lucerne. She attended master classes with Andreas Haefliger, Robert Levin, Valery Sokolov, Leon Fleisher, Eliso Virsaladze, Werner Bärtschi, Homero Francesch, Ana Chumachenco and Jörg Widmann, among others.
Her musical collaboration with Hanspeter Oggier began as the accompanist for the Lucerne pan flute class; since then they have played numerous concerts together and are now releasing their first CD together, "Trockene Blumen". Marina Vasilyeva is also a sought-after soloist and chamber musician; she performs in Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Italy, Russia, Serbia and the Czech Republic. She is also the artistic director of the Lucerne concert series "Vierwaldstätter Konzerte". Together with her husband, guitarist Valéry Burot, she also pursues a completely different musical project as a singer: as Duo Strela, the two present traditional songs and original compositions inspired by tradition in 14 languages.
