About this concert
Celebrating the 30th anniversary of the duo of violinist Alexei Aigui and pianist Dietmar Bonnen
1994 was the year in which the congenial artistic friendship between Alexei Aigui and Dietmar Bonnen began: they played their first concert together in Moscow. In the following years, they played as guests in each other’s ensembles and were both part of the Russian-German Composers Quartet (with Manfred Niehaus and Ivan Sokolov). Increasingly, they developed their musical language as a duo: they interpreted early music, Kurt Weill, Hendrix and Zappa, Aigui and Bonnen.
At this year’s Panda concert, with which they are celebrating the 30th anniversary of their duo, they will be presenting their compositions as well as surprising interpretations of film music gems alongside the now well-known highlights of their programs.
Featuring: Alexei Aigui — violin, Dietmar Bonnen — piano, voice

alexei aigui Biography
Alexei Aigui is one of the most striking and versatile Russian composers. The success of his soundtrack to Valery Todorovsky’s Country of the Deaf was so mind blowing that it turned the Russian music life in the late 1990s upside down. Thanks to him, soundtracks masterfully entered the concert halls and clubs, and instrumental music peaked the interest of the general public.
With ease, Aigui combines the piercing sensuality with strict form; the touching beauty of sound with experiments, minimalism and neoclassics with avanguard. He has written dozens of instrumental scores and more than 50 soundtracks for films by Raoul Peck, Hirokazu Koreeda, Pascal Bonitzer among others. Most recently he composed the score for two Raoul Peck’s films: the acclaimed, Oscar-nominated, BAFTA- and César-awarded documentary ‘I Am Not Your Negro’, and ‘The Young Karl Marx’ that premiered in the 67th Berlinale Special Gala program. Aigui's score for ‘I Am Not Your Negro’ was also nominated for 2017 Cinema Eye Honors Awards.
As a violinist, he initiated international projects with various musicians including the famous French composer and creator of sound machines, Pierre Bastien, french jazz-singer Mina Agossi, German pianist Dietmar Bonnen, and Japanese violinist Keisuke Ota, and actively performs with his ensemble “4’33’’”. He plays on well-respected world stages and festivals in Germany, France, Japan and Russia.
