Description:
Event Horizon describes the flight to a black hole. Dynamically springy, with great rhythmic drive and in pan-diatonic tonality, we are on the way to utopian renewal beyond the horizons. The journey starts at breakneck speed ("On the verge of flying off the track, risking losing control"). In contrast, a calm, spherical and delicately dissonant middle section is heard, before the rapid tempo of the beginning is resumed. We are moving away from the black hole ... or are we disappearing into it?
The choral scene is colorful. This diversity is enriched by numerous contemporary compositions, which fortunately increasingly find their way into the concert programs. In addition to works that can be attributed to the avant-garde, there are pieces with folk music influences, and still others move between different styles. The new Bärenreiter series "Contemporary Choral Works" brings together high-quality contemporary choral works. Just as the pieces have a wide stylistic range, the instrumentations are also different – but all a cappella. The technical requirements vary, but even the more demanding compositions are tried and tested and do not pose any extraordinary challenges.
