Orchestre de Chambre du Luxembourg Corinna Niemeyer, conductor Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber : Battalia Kaija Saariaho : Terra Memoria Frank Martin : Petite Symphonie concertante With this concert, we depart on an exploration of the sound-world of string instruments. The voyage begins in the midst of a Baroque battlefield, where two rival groups of strings confront each other. We continue through a land of memories ... What sounds can actually invoke memories? Finally, our journey ends in colourful excitement, where the strings reveal their infinite range of possibilities: hit, plucked, stroked...Be careful: strings can be savage, sometimes!
