Edition 60 / 9 Jun 2021

Edition 60

Art is at its finest when it offers its viewers or listeners a chance to experience something new – whether it’s a fresh train of thought, new imagery or a new way of listening. In this edition of Festival Dag in de Branding, different generations of composers present a fresh perspective on old and familiar aspects of music. Unfortunately it is not yet possible to receive our audience in the theatres for live concerts, so we present our programme in anonline broadcast on Wednesday 9 June. You will see parts of the various concerts, an interview with composer Meriç Artaç and afterwards we invite you and the artists for the aftertalk in Zoom.

Trio XTRO takes a fresh perspective on everyday acts and objects. Meriç Artaç introduces two new characters from her opera Mr. Zanzun’s House of Characters, which will be premiered this autumn, in conclusion of her residency at Festival Dag in de Branding. Maxim Shalygin brings a fresh perspective on the cello. We are introduced to a whole new instrument, a futuristic installation built from the cello’s traditional materials: wood, horsehair and string. Especially for the online broadcast, the New European Ensemble, together with composer Mikel Urquiza, made a musical impression of Panorama Mesdag.
