Imagine minimalist legend Philip Glass saying this about you: ‘Her arrangements give me new insights into my own music.’ That’s Glass speaking about the interpretations of harpist Lavinia Meijer. Meijer, in turn, says about the composer: ‘With Glass, everything I’ve been searching for in my life falls into place’. A match made in heaven. Lavinia Meijer and the premier choir Cappella Amsterdam, conducted by Cyrille Nanchen, present an evening dedicated to the most beautiful works of Philip Glass.
Philip Glass’s clear, repetitive and instantly recognisable style is the heartbeat of this programme. From highlights of his operas Akhnaten and Einstein on the Beach to the cult-classic film score of Koyaanisqatsi and a solo piece for harp, the concert offers a 360-degree tour of the Glass universe, alongside kindred pieces by Caroline Shaw and others. Harp and choir alternate and intertwine, moving from intimate solos to serene a cappella moments, and from hushed passages to more rhythmic sections.
Tickets: € 12,50 – € 45,00
