Chemin Neuf
2023-09-21T18:00:00.000Z
The Chemin Neuf band promises an extraordinary concert experience, with four musicians from different musical backgrounds. Judit Rajk, who has an enchanting voice, has for decades been recognised as an expert on pre-classical music history, both at home and abroad. Ditta Rohmann is perhaps best known for her highly unusual Baroque solo sonata recitals with cello and vocal improvisations, while Tamás Zétényi is one of the leading depositors of Hungarian contemporary music. This time, the composer-guitarist Gábor Gadó's unique universe fuses with the worlds of early music, Baroque and contemporary music. Gadó's use of modal traditions and tonal harmonies is extremely intimate, and more broadly he has developed a unique relationship with the great artistic and spiritual movements of Central Europe, as well as with Eastern mysticism.

Schedule
The 14 strings of the two cellos and the guitar are played at roughly the same pitch, with which the alto voice, also deep and warm in tone, forms an almost otherworldly beautiful blend. The programme moves from the spirit of modal liturgical early music, through the baroque tradition of Gregorian chant and Bach, to Liszt, considered the forerunner of modern music, and from there through Kurtág to Miles Davis' controlled freedom, which is now a "controlled freedom" free of any system, not even fixed in a score.
