Cellofest: 51 strings
A raw, underground contemporary classical night.
De eigenzinnige Engelse cellist Matthew Barley stelde op verzoek van de Cello Biënnale een ensemble samen met snaarinstrumenten uit vier verschillende culturen. In deze unieke bezetting van 51 snaren komt de cello samen met de Afrikaanse kora (Dawda Jobarteh), de Finse kantele (Hanna Ryynänen) en de Braziliaans berimbau (Adriano Adewale). 51 strings verbindt verschillende muzikale tradities en klankwerelden in nieuwe composities en bewerkingen van dansen en slaapliedjes uit het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Finland, Turkije en Gambia. Een doorlopende improvisatie vol grooves en lullabies.
