FRSO-festival - Sound and Fury
A cross-section of Magnus Lindberg’s composer odyssey in an unusually colourful concert
Movement and quick gestures fascinate Magnus Lindberg. Vast machinery, frenzied blows, and gradually transforming soundscapes. His idiom is easily recognisable, even though his appetite for metal has tended to be replaced more by an interest in silence with the passing of the years. An unusually colourful concert presenting a cross-section of his music to date and expressing his love for the piano, represented by no fewer than four on the stage. Stravinsky and Bach provide a thought-provoking sounding board.
