This is a joint concert with composer/performer Anthony Coleman; the first half of the concert will feature Coleman and friends performing Kagel’s rarely heard Der Schall, quite possibly a once in a life time opportunity.

This concert considers Mauricio Kagel as a window to the past and the future. Kagel’s compsitional output itself pivots between looking forward and looking backward. Tonight we encounter him as a teacher, a model, and a colleague.

The concert begins at 8pm.

Programme:

“Make music of everthing.”
--Georges Aperghis
