»Miserere« / Ensemble Variances
Lux aeterna

Start 20:00
Description
Influenced by far-flung musical cultures, composer and pianist Thierry Pécou has always gone his own way with the aim of reviving »the ritual character of music«. Expressly to turn his vision into practice, he founded Ensemble Variances, with which he concentrates first and foremost on contemporary music in a variety of orchestrations.
In Hamburg he presents among other things two of his own compositions: his setting of the penitential psalm »Miserere«, and »Chö, un rituel tibétian«, a piece inspired by Tibetan Buddhism, in which the bass clarinet and the piano imitate ritual instruments.
