【2024 Weiwuying International Music Festival】Marianna BEDNARSKA Percussion Recital - In the beginning was rhythm
Marianna BEDNARSKA won't just be showcasing her marimba prowess, but she's also curated a line-up of notable percussion pieces.

Hailing from Poland, Marianna BEDNARSKA clinched the title of percussion winner at the 2019 Geneva Music Competition and was also honored with the Credit Suisse Young Artist Award that same year. With her remarkable musical interpretations and impeccable technique, she's rapidly emerging as one of Europe's most notable rising stars. Luzerner Zeitung extolled her ability to inspire audiences "with her virtuosic, emotional, and masterful playing across instruments. The New York Times lauded her "sparkling" recording of four marimba concertos by the Danish composer Anders KOPPEL.

In her upcoming concert, BEDNARSKA will render several string pieces on the marimba, including BACH's standalone Cello Suite and PAGANINI's Caprice, each demonstrating her profound interpretative depth and deft technique. She's also chosen contemporary masterpieces that blend diverse forms of artistic expression to enchant music aficionados. Whether it's Georges APERGHIS's Le Corps à Corps, a piece that melds spoken word with hand drums to portray an entwined battle between two entities; Vinko GLOBOKAR's "? Corporel," where the body itself becomes a musical instrument, exploring soundscapes through strikes to various body parts; or Emmanuel SÉJOURNÉ's "Attraction" and others, every piece promises to be a unique auditory journey!

【2024衛武營國際音樂節】瑪麗安娜．貝德納絲卡打擊獨奏會《鼓動》
融合口白、肢體與劇場元素的擊樂名作，拓展你我聽覺想像。

2019年日內瓦音樂大賽擊樂得主，同年亦獲頒瑞士信貸青年藝術家大獎，來自波蘭的貝德納絲卡（Marianna BEDNARSKA）近年以出眾的音樂表現和洗鍊技巧，成為歐陸最受矚目的新星之一。她的演奏曾被《琉森報》（Luzerner Zeitung）評為能「啟發聽眾」，《紐約時報》更以「耀眼的錄音」來形容她灌錄的丹麥作曲家柯佩爾（A. Koppel）四首木琴協奏曲專輯。

  本次音樂會她除了將以木琴演奏多首弦樂改編曲，包括巴赫大提琴無伴奏與帕格尼尼隨想曲，展現詮釋底蘊和俐落身手，更挑選了融入多元表現形式的當代傑作以饗樂迷。無論是希臘作曲家阿貝爾吉斯用口白與手鼓，塑造兩人或兩物之間，纏鬥得難分難解的〈相搏〉；斯洛維尼亞作曲家葛洛波卡以身體為樂器，藉由拍打不同部位探索音響組合的〈？肢體〉；或是加入電子樂伴奏的哈奇斯《生之祭典》與賽瓊奈〈吸引力〉，無一不拓展你的聽覺體驗！
