La Tempête: Nocturne
November 19 @ 20:00
From Darkness to Light. Steeped in thousands of years of Orthodox tradition, Sergei Rachmaninoff’s “All-Night Vigil” was written in 1915, against the backdrop of political turmoil in the composer’s home country and the beginning of World War I. The idea of the performance, prepared by the La Tempête ensemble, is to reconstruct the ritual, combining the All-Night V igil along with Byzantine hymns, while making complete use of the space by the singers, creating a transcendental journey among the sounds of one of the greatest works of vocal art.
Program:
Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943), All-Night Vigil (Vsechnoye bdieniye), Op. 37 (1915) for chorus
Byzantine hymns
Artists:
