Monday, December 9, 2013 at 8pm Trio IRCAM/Centre Pompidou-Grande salle-Paris
France
Tickets: 14€ | 10€ | 5€ In 1944, a year before his death, Bartók composed an immense sonata for violin has no equal since the sonatas by Bach. Song, polyphonic density, large forms. The final Liszt is the opposite of a miniature, of harmonic ambiguity, and of the premonition in 1883 of a tonal world in decomposition.
Three exceptional musicians brought together by the composer Marc Monnet summon these pivotal works around the creation of an unfaithful disciple of Kagel. In his critical passion of electronics, Monnet prefers the rapidity of instrumental gesture to a display of a pirouetting fiction of technology.

Thursday, December 12, 2013 at 7.30pm John Adams: City Noir City Halls Glasgow Scotland
Tickets: £11-£24 James Ehnes violin
Donald Runnicles conductor
BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra
It's one of the most talked-about new scores of recent years. And there's absolutely nothing minimal about John Adams's City Noir, a sassy, bluesy symphony of Los Angeles, inspired by classic movies and scored for a Mahler-size orchestra. This is music that demands to be heard, and Donald Runnicles has set it alongside the dazzling rightness of Beethoven's headlong Fourth Symphony and the ominous twilight of Shostakovich's tormented First Violin Concerto, performed here by James Ehnes - whose "indelible, intellectually gripping" Shostakovich performances have left critics reeling. Three masterworks from three centuries, each speaking to the other - and, more importantly, to us: right here and right now.
