Rowing at the 2024 medici.tv musical Olympics

As Paris celebrates the Olympic Games in 2024, medici.tv invites you to play along at home in our special musical Oympics! Five events, nine nationalities, 19 composers, and three weeks to decide who will take home the gold… It's up to you to vote for your favorite pieces and composers from July 26 - August 11 and help them advance in the medal standings.

A veritable pas de deux on the water, pair rowing requires power, harmony, and a good sense of balance, as the slightest misstep by one rower can bring about disaster for both. The same masterful push and pull is on full display in these beloved two-handers, interpreted by internationally renowned artists — who will get your vote between Bach's Double Concerto, Delibes's "Flower Duet" from Lakmé, "Papageno, Papagena" from Mozart's Magic Flute, the Handel / Halvorsen Passacaglia, or Pergolesi's Stabat Mater?
