Rebecca Saunders Dialogue
Harrison Birtwistle Cortege, a ceremony for fourteen musicians in memory of Michael Vyner
Rebecca Saunders new work UK Premiere
musikFabrik
This concert performed by musikFabrik combines three British composers, all leading figures of contemporary music. Without fixed instrumentation or duration, Jonathan Harvey's Climbing Frame - commissioned by CoMA and first performed at hcmf in 2004 - leaves great freedom to musicians as well as conductor. Harrison Birtwistle's Cortege reveals a ritualistic ceremony uncovering the semi-dramatic aspects of making music, and two new pieces by Rebecca Saunders demonstrate her imaginative and poetic use of space and colour in music.
