Edinburgh International Festival: Meredith Monk and Vocal Ensemble – On Behalf of Nature

Carnegie’s Zankel Hall hosts a four and a half hour celebration of the work of Meredith Monk.

Bravo to Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony for blowing the dust off of some of the boldest innovators America has produced. As part of a mini-festival at Carnegie Hall of 20th- and 21st-century composers who stretched musical and formal boundaries (to put it mildly), the program on Tuesday night was packed with rarely-played wonders.

Entre la variedad estilística y las diversas maneras de hacer, la música del violonchelista alemán desplegó un muestrario de posibilidades instrumentales en la intimidad monástica.

Mario Brunello recorrió obras de Bach y Weinberg en una interpretación plena de personalidad, cuyo carácter unitario mostraba voluntad por ofrecer una experiencia viva.
