Belgian National Orchestra – Hugh Wolff – Martin Grubinger
About the Event
Indoafrica, Eurasia and the Americas. Those were the names of the three supercontinents which existed long before people walked on the face of this earth. The composer Avner Dorman has tried to create ‘imaginary snapshots’ of these continents at different points in time. He commences in Eurasia during prehistoric times and takes us on a journey through Indoafrica to the Americas, still connected today as one large land mass. The percussionist Martin Grubinger pulls out all the stops to make this energetic work sound even more dynamic, playing no less than 23 percussion instruments during this concert!
