New Perspectives through Music
Today I went to the final rehersal before the grand concertos on Sunday and Monday Nov. 27, in Trinitatis Kirke at 19.30. Several LinkS alumni will be there to follow the Blue Tone trail. They meet outside at 19.10 the latest.
Today, I will invite you on a journey into a new perspective - seen from the Alto. Last time I did this pice is 10 years ago as a soprano, so I am up for a change of view. So, I brought my recorder in the pocket to illustrate the experience from the inside.
The Maria Vesperae by Monteverdi is one of the very early pieces of classical music. Through this piece we understand the transformation of Gregorian music to classical music - this is a universe rather special and 400 years old. There are a few years to go before the Blue Notes where invented!
At the same time this recording is a live chance of looking into the world of the conductor and a choir, soloists and orchestra. Per Enevold is conducting Trinitatis Kantori - www.kantori.dk and is one of our beloved conductors in Scandinavian choir music. Several international honours belongs to Per Enevold who have been conducting both in Europe and the USA.
You can listen directly on your PC or find your earphones to catch the comments of a world class conductor - tells you a lot about leadership.
I will follow up with an interview with Per Enevold when the concertos has come to a grand finale…
Enjoy these selections…
