Sound of San Marco / Vocalconsort Berlin
»Venice« Easter Festival
Four hundred years of music history separate the two native Venetians Gabrieli and Nono. One was an organist and composer who perfected Venetian polychoral music at St. Mark’s Basilica by distributing several groups of singers in the galleries around the space. The other became the leading figure in post-war avant-garde and brought the Communist class struggle to the stage in music. However, his »Love Song« is a work that hovers delicately in the space – a declaration of love to his future wife, the daughter of Arnold Schönberg. In the Vocalconsort Berlin, an outstanding choir performs on this evening.
