It's that time again! In a cosy atmosphere we listen together to a selection of our favourite pieces for the end of the year.
« Glissade », that could be the title. We enter the concert hall and we’re taken in this huge slide to land in – in a logical machine world?
But the title might as well be « Sandwich » as the bass clarinet stands there, alone and intense in Brett Dean’s Confessio, between two broader program parts…or what about « B.B. » which would stand for « Ballade for a Bulldozer »? Yes, we will be playing that too, not to mention Sofia Gubaidulina’s sonata and Wolfgang Rihm’s In nuce.
No, let’s stick to the original idea: this will be the « Cadavre Exquis » concert. And how does it sound?
