For the second «Aventure+» of the season, the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg teams up with one of the most hair-raising duos of the classical music world: Igudesman & Joo. Consisting of a violinist and a pianist, the duo has set its goal «making people laugh through music, without making music itself laughable» (Le Figaro). Since their days at the Yehudi Menuhin School both continue to revere Monty Python’s heritage, but also that of Ionesco, Wilde and Shaw. Or, as Hyung-ki Joo once remarked drily: «At the Menuhin School, we concentrated more on literature than on music, that is why I never really made progress on the violin!» Side-splitting laughter is all but guaranteed.
