Ensembles - Camenae Collective - Schubert Schuberts Componistenkettingbrief A musical chain - Inspired by Schubert
Soprano Claron McFadden sings Sofia Gubaidulina
The Camenae Collective will play works by Franz Schubert, Sofia Gubaidulina and Roderik de Man. The choice of these composers is no coincidence: Schubert’s Octet is the linking factor. Gubaidulina used this Octet as a starting point for her Hommage à T.S. Eliot. Roderik de Man used texts by T.S. Eliot as the basis of his new work Time present/past. This chain of three linked composers gives rise to echoes and contrasts that are truly astonishing in their impact, while the listener need not forego the comfort of familiar notes. Gubaidulina and De Man are a must for Schubert devotees. Camenae wins over sceptics with this unexpectedly close-knit combination of music from three centuries. The violinist Tiziana Pintus – together with the cellist John Addison the driving force behind the Camenae Collective – was the initiator of the Gubaidulina Festival in the Amsterdam Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ in 2006. The composer was present and expressed great enthusiasm for their interpretation of her works. Tiziana Pintus and John Addison will now be joined by six eminent musicians to perform as an octet in Schubert’s Composers’ Chain Letter. The soprano Claron McFadden takes on a leading part! Bringing new music to the attention of new music enthusiasts who are not yet aware that they are in fact enthusiasts ... this is Camenae’s aspiration!
