NOW 4: Clocks and Clouds

Programme:
Georg Friedrich Haas: Natures mortes
György Ligeti: Clocks and Clouds
Florent Schmitt: La Tragédie de Salomé, ballet suite, Op. 50

“I don’t believe in relationships in music that are evident only in the score and can’t be experienced by immediate perception. I hope that intuition and reason find a balance in my music,” are the words of the main protagonist of the concert, Austrian composer Georg Friedrich Haas. Similar reflections could apply to György Ligeti’s Clocks and Clouds. In both compositions, the beauty, richness and diversity of sound panoramas flourish in different ways. The concert will conclude with La Tragédie de Salomé by French composer Florent Schmitt, who charmingly intertwines elements of Impressionism, Late Romanticism and the beginnings of Modernism, as introduced by Igor Stravinsky.
