Shining a light on some incredible concerts coming up in our spring season, our series of #SpringSpotlights celebrates a performance we can’t wait to share with you!
Symmetries in Sound is a celebration of musical games and mirrors including ‘Der Spiegel’, a piece for two violinists looking at the same sheet of music, one right-way-up, the other upside-down. Also playing with reading the music is De Machaut’s ‘Ma fin est mon commencement’, a piece performed forwards then backwards. Pärt’s popular piece for cello and piano, ‘Spiegel im Spiegel’ (Mirror in the mirror) and Debussy’s impressionistic evocation, ‘Reflets dans l’eau’ (Reflections in the water) highlight musical mirrors, and the concert culminates with a wonder of musical structure, Bartók’s String Quartet No.4, composed as a musical arch.
