Pre-concert Berio Sequenza performance concert in the foyer:
Luciano Berio: Sequenza III Luciano Berio: Sequenza IX Luciano Berio: Sequenza IV
Concert:
Luciano Berio: Quattro Canzoni Populari Rebecca Clarke: Prelude, Allegro and Pastorale Maurice Ravel: Chansons madécasses Interval Katherine Hoover: Kokopeli for Solo Flute Manuel De Falla: Siete Canciones populares españolas Luciano Berio: Folk Songs
Ensemble 360 and Claire Booth, who have forged a dynamic partnership through their performances of Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire together, now turn their attention to Berio's quirky and intriguing Folk Songs in the composer's centenary year. Indeed, folk influences pervade the whole programme, from Rebecca Clarke's pastoral-tinged duo for clarinet and viola and Katherine Hoover’s evocation of the Hopi people to Ravel's sultry, sun-drenched pictures of Madagascar.
A preconcert thread of Berio Sequenzas sets the scene.....
