Description

The tuba’s low notes here, the shrill whistles of piccolo there, while the piano is tormented with fist and forearm: Galina Ustvolskaya’s Dona nobis pacem is a pain-distorted cry for peace that, by the end, becomes a kind of internalized prayer. Patricia Kopatchinskaja’s new staged concert, which she is developing together with the Lucerne Festival Contemporary Leaders, opens with sonic extremities. This work addresses the experience of war and violence, the idea that “the concert hall is a bunker in which people seek shelter together, while outside the world is coming to an end. I wanted to know what music can be played and heard under such circ*mstances. And whether music has any meaning at all when you’re fighting for your life.” The entire concert hall will be transformed into a playing space for the musicians.
