Melem i za oči i za uši: zbog nje ćete zavoljeti klasičnu glazbu!

Lola Astanova 34-godišnja je pijanistica iz Sjedinjenih Američkih Država, a rodom je iz Uzbekistana.

Poznata je po svojim interpretacijama Chopina, Liszta i Rahmanjinova, ali i vizualno atraktivnim nastupima.

Glazbom se bavi od malih nogu, a debitirala je s 19 godina nastupivši u Centru izvedbenih umjetnosti John F. Kennedy u Washingtonu.

Svoju karijeru prenosi i na Instagramu gdje ju prati više od 820.000 korisnika. Osim provokativnim odjevnim kombinacijama, prašinu diže i načinima na kojima izvodi skladbe.

Skladbu može izvesti svirajući na dva klavira istovremeno, vježbajući, a voli i zapjevati.

Hrvatsku je posjetila nekoliko puta. U studenom prošle godine nastupila je u zagrebačkoj koncertnoj dvorani Vatroslav Lisinski. Prošlog ljeta nastupila je i na svečanom zatvaranju WTA Croatia Bol Opena na Zlatnom ratu te je tamo snimila i videospota za pjesmu “Inspirit”.

Šuškalo se da je u vezi s našim violončelistom Stjepanom Hauserom nakon što su zajedno snimili nekoliko pjesama, što su oboje opovrgnuli.

Thank you for all the love on my angel video! It was also an interesting experiment 😉 and I am glad to see that 99% of you are open-minded, well-balanced, modern people that live in 2019 and not 1419! And to the 1% that was ‘offended’ or felt it was ‘too much’, I am sorry that your phobias preclude you from living an enjoyable life even on Halloween. Somehow women are still constantly ‘educated’ on what they should look like, how they should behave and dress to fit some ‘standard’ that some think is right for them. Each woman is unique, and has the right to make her own choices! In big things and small. Just remember, that the idea of what’s ‘proper’ or ‘correct’ was instilled in our minds by someone else. (Most of the time, by people with their own limitations and fears.) So, you have no clue what Chopin would have liked or thought about today’s world, but I’m sure he wouldn’t mind knowing that his music can breathe again. So try to open your mind, pursue your dreams, allow others to thrive and be themselves! 😉 • • • • #pianist #piano #womenpower #wings #musician #angel
