ensemble unitedberlin, Vladimir Jurowski
Berlin, Konzerthaus Berlin — Werner‐Otto Saal
About the Event
The evening features two works whose creators engage with the works of their colleagues: David Lang, drawing on an indeterminate, unnamed number of composers who, in his view, are constantly striving to highlight their own greatness through their works. And John Adams, who—following his 1992 Chamber Symphony—is engaging with Arnold Schoenberg for the second time Schoenberg is the great role model when it comes to the chamber symphony genre.
Program
- David Lang – cheating, lying, stealing (1995)
- John Luther Adams – Son of Chamber Symphony (2007)
