{"content":"\n    <div class=\"detail-content\">\n        \n        <strong>About work:</strong> <p>When, after leaving for Germany, Ladislav Kupkovič resolutely changed his compositional tactics, many considered this step to be only a creative episode of his. Further years, further compositions however confirmed this orientation – with an inclination to traditional means using authenticated methods and idioms – as probably definitive. The Sonata Funebre (2001), dedicated to the memory of Ovidiu Badila and to Duo Šašina's interpretive attention, communicates by means of its unobtrusive, euphonic language. Its four movement structure with its logical progression gives space to the richness of melodic lines accentuating the cantabile-vaulted arches and the ingeniously differentiated areas of expression.</p><br>\n        <em>(Lýdia Dohnalová, in: CD booklet \"Slovak Music for Double Bass and Piano,\" Diskant 2008)</em><br>\n        <br>\n        <p>\n            <strong>Movements:</strong><br>\n\n                Meditation (Andante)\n                6' 05''\n                <br>\n\n                Con fuoco\n                5' 07''\n                <br>\n\n                Moderato\n                5' 37''\n                <br>\n\n                Allegro non troppo\n                8' 01''\n                <br>\n            </p>\n\n        <br><p>\n                <p><strong>First performance in Slovakia</strong></p>\n                \n                \n                10.03.2002,\n                SK\n\n<br><span class=\"type\">Performers: </span>Radoslav Šašina (cb), Dana Šašinová (pf)\n                <br>\n\n\n            </p>\n    </div>\n"}
