Concerts 11/12 Bhakti
Eastern mysticism was an enormous source of fascination and inspiration for the composer Debussy. His piano works are therefore a logical and yet striking contrast to the performance of Jonathan Harvey’s Bhakti. Played alongside each other the music of these composers becomes a unique experience. The work of Jonathan Harvey is composed for ensemble and tape. Fusing with the four channeled electronics the acoustic sounds of the ensemble create an extraordinary whole. In Bhakti the Sanskrit Hymns (Rig Veda 1700-100 BC) bring ancient mysticism in contact with 20th century music. This in combination with the music of Debussy offers the listener a truly unique experience.
