A spatial performance by one of the world’s most sought-after performers of contemporary music, violinist Hana Kotková, together with Veniero Rizzardi (electronics).
“Caminantes, no hay caminos, hay que caminar…” (Wayfarers, there are no paths, yet you must walk…). This inscription found on the wall of a monastery in Toledo inspired the spatial composition for violin and eight-track tape La lontananza nostalgica utopica futura (1989) by Italian composer Luigi Nono. This bold, fascinating work will be performed together with Six Caprices for solo violin (1976) by Salvatore Sciarrino, a piece closely connected with Niccolò Paganini’s famous 24 Caprices Op. 1. The soloist for the evening will be Hana Kotková, a highly sought-after world performer of contemporary music. She will be partnered by a specialist in Luigi Nono’s work, Veniero Rizzardi. The audience arriving on this occasion at the Transport Hall of the National Technical Museum is in for an unusual sonic experience that treads a fine line between concert and site-specific performance. Simply imagine the violinist moving about in the space, whose “camino” (path) is determined by an electronic track.
