In this episode of the Classical Scene, host Victor Huls speaks with Wesley Ducote, a pianist and collaborator from St. Pete, about their upcoming special performance at the Museum of Fine Arts on May 24th. The concert, curated by Ducote, is designed to complement the museum's kimono exhibit and explores the musical conversation between Eastern and Western cultures, particularly focusing on composers from Japan and France. The program features works by Debussy, Messiaen, Toru Takemitsu, and Karen Tanaka, among others. Ducote explains the concept of 'weaving through time,' reflecting both the visual artistry of kimonos and the intricate layering and cyclical nature of the music. The discussion highlights various influences, such as Eastern philosophies, Gamelan music, and Western classical traditions, and how they come together to create a nuanced and respectful cultural exchange. The episode also details Ducote’s diverse musical career in St. Pete and the significance of these cross-cultural musical dialogues.
