Asambura-Ensemble

Winterreise interkulturell (Schubert/Guth)

What does home mean? In Schubert‘s song cycle, we meet a traveller: a stranger, a homeless person, an unhappy lover, an aimless wanderer, torn between his dreams and bitter reality. The Asambura-Ensemble connects Schubert with Persian poems and music about strangeness and loneliness, developing new perspectives. “I arrived a stranger, a stranger I depart” – in view of the homelessness of so many refugees, this newly interpreted song cycle is highly up to date.

Bach Cello Suites

Juris Teichmanis

Juris Teichmanis presents his very unique interpretation of the complete Cello Suites by Johann Sebastian Bach. Flamboyant colours are created through the standard pitch of 400 Hertz and the choice of two historic instruments fitted with gut strings. The rarely heard Violoncello Piccolo with its additional fifth string reveals a surprising perspective at the end of the cycle in the sixth suite.

Solitude

Daniel Cunha
