Event Details
Nach einem Wort der Aborigines für »Sterne« benannte Georges Lentz sein für Tabea Zimmermann geschriebenes »Bratschenkonzert«. Keinen »dominierenden Helden« sah der Komponist, derzeit Stipendiat der Villa Concordia in Bamberg, in dem Soloinstrument, eher ein »zerbrechliches Individuum innerhalb des gigantischen Weltalls«.
Georges Lentz's Viola concerto, written for Tabea Zimmermann, got its title from an Aboriginal word for 'star'. Rather than as a dominant hero, the composers saw the solo instrument as 'a fragile individual in a gigantic universe'.
Featured non-Australian music: Strauss: Heldenleben
