 ‘Dialoge’ is an album built on encounter, spontaneity and the meeting of musical worlds.
 Bringing together composed works from the classical repertoire and immediate improvisation, the project unfolds as a series of musical conversations between pianist Johanna Summer and four remarkable artists: Claire Huangci, Danae Dörken, Kit Armstrong and Igor Levit.
 Each guest performs a piece of their choice, to which Summer responds in the moment with an improvised continuation at a second grand piano.
 In this unique exchange, classical works become the starting point for new musical paths, blurring the boundaries between interpretation and improvisation and creating a vibrant dialogue between tradition and invention.
 The result is an album of musical encounters where listening, spontaneity and dialogue take centre stage.
