Austrian conductor and choirmaster Heinz Ferlesch will perform an evergreen of 20th-century music, Carmina Burana, with a large company of virtuosic percussionists, among them Martin Grubinger, who already cast a spell on the audience of the Budapest Spring Festival in 2014.
The new work of the phenomenal pianist-composer, Fazil Say, had its premiere in Lübeck two years ago. Like the namesake piece that another pianist-composer, Rachmaninoff wrote a hundred years ago, The Bells was ...inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's poem, while its instrumentation makes it a pendant of Carmina Burana. Martin Grubinger and The Percussive Planet Ensemble already fulfilled percussive duties at the Lübeck premiere of the composition. This evening's conductor, Heinz Ferlesch has earned acclaim over the past decade chiefly with the performance of baroque works. The monumental compositions of Bach and Handel are frequently on the concert programme of Barucco, the ensemble he founded in 2002.
