| Concertgebouw: Main Hall, Amsterdam, Amsterdam, Netherlands Thursday 13-Jun-13 08:15pm Memento Mori Heinz Holliger remembers the dead.
‘Remember that we will all die’, is the motto for this programme by and with Heinz Holliger. Ten years after his last appearance with the Concertgebouw Orchestra, the Swiss hobo player, composer and conductor returns with a programme centred
on death. The orchestra will play three of Holliger’s own works: two adaptations of ominous, late piano works by Liszt and the Dutch premiere of Ardeur noire, his homage to Debussy. Holliger sandwiches his own works between two contrasting paradigms of expressionism. Berg’s Violin Concerto was dedicated to Manon Gropius, who died at a young age, and constitutes Berg’s last finished composition. Finally, the Dutch premiere of Alagoana is performed, a ballet suite by Zimmermann based on an Indian myth of life and death.Tickets €40.50 - 22.50, SJP €36.20 - 30. Running time 2 hours including one interval.Image credit: Ronald Knapp | ||

| Barbican Centre: Hall, London, Silk Street, London EC2Y 8DS, United Kingdom Wednesday 19-Mar-14 07:30pm Music by Mozart and Messiaen This promises to be a night of the sublime and the numinous, in which Messaien’s visionary epic is prefaced with Mozart’s inimitable double concerto for violin and viola, featuring two of Europe’s leading young string players. Messaien’s Eclairs sur l’au-delà or ‘Illuminations on the Beyond’ scored for vast orchestral forces, was his final completed work. Months before his death he spoke of its inspiration: ‘I imagined myself in front of a curtain, in darkness, apprehensive about what lay beyond: Resurrection, Eternity, the other life.’ Tickets £10 - 32. | ||
