Officium breve in memoriam Andreae Szervanszky Op 28 - György Kurtág
-
Lonely Child - Claude Vivier
Violence is a by-product of my music; it's not something I putin. I am not expressing violence. It's the nature of the material that I use, perhaps, that equates with violence. - Harrison Birtwistle.
Whilst violence may be inherent in some aspects of ritual, it is by no means the only characteristic of it. Placed next to Birtwistle's Ritual Fragment, the Chimera Ensemble shows ritual in a wholly differnt way in Kurtag's solemn music and in Vivier's dramatic Lonely Child for soprano and ensemble. To be presented with works by composers based in York.
