Beethoven's Grosse Fuge
One moment you are listening to a string quartet in a traditional setting, and then you are surprised when the melodies of the various instruments start to dance around you. With respect for the original work, experiments are made with the material to bring the subtle as well as coarse dynamics of the piece to life in new dimensions. Different ways are explored to express the richness of the string instruments, even to the point of abstraction, where you end up in a world of sound rather than listening to music, until another melody appears on the horizon.
Alma Quartet
The Alma Quartet is a renowned string ensemble of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra that brings together innovation and tradition in an exciting and unprecedented way. ‘They have a collective antenna for refined timbres’, according to de Volkskrant. The Alma Quartet consists of Marc Daniel van Biemen (violin), Benjamin Peled (violin), Jeroen Woudstra (viola), and Clément Peigné (cello). The quartet has a trademark knack for special collaborations, projects in which classical music flawlessly bleeds into the domains of pop, folk music, avant-garde and jazz. The Alma Quartet is also widely acclaimed within classical circles all over the world, especially for their unique interpretations of Korngold and Schulhoff.
Aural Spaces
This concert is part of the Aural Spaces festival. From 12 to 15 December, a new dimension will be added to the live music experience in the Recital Hall of The Concertgebouw. The familiar red plush chairs will make way for a 4DSOUND installation, consisting of 13 pillars with 41 speakers. Classical acoustic methods are combined with the modern technology of 4DSOUND, further expanding the possibilities of sound experience.
Aural Spaces explores the boundaries between sound and space, blurring them and merging them. The result is a completely immersive listening experience that’s all too rare. Discover and feel how the music moves through space!
