FESTIVAL OPENING: Masters Cycle & MBZ: Concert Various

The opening of the 32nd Zagreb Music Biennale will be marked by a concert by the HRT Symphony Orchestra in the Great Hall of KDVL with four prominent soloists, four recognized world composers and four compositions - two of which were commissioned, i.e. premiere performances. At the concert, the composition L'oeil du cyclone by the world-renowned composer Tristan Murail will also be performed, which will also be the first performance after this fantasy-impromptu for piano and orchestra "toured the world" in the home halls and home orchestras of those who commissioned by - Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK), Elbphilarmonie, BBC and Radio France. In Zagreb, as well as in Tokyo, Hamburg, London and Paris, the French pianist François-Frédéric Guy, respected and recognized precisely for his approach to contemporary music, will perform as a soloist.

The concert, which will keep pace with the interests and goals of the new Biennale, crossing the borders of the music itself, performance and composition into the field of their philosophy and historical deconstruction, will be conducted by the chief conductor of the HRT Symphony Orchestra, Pascal Rophé. Rophé himself is a great connoisseur of musical tradition, and even more of contemporary music, mostly of the 20th and 21st centuries, which he actively promotes. Therefore, they will be able to offer an experienced response to a repertoire that flirts a lot with tradition, modernism and the avant-garde.

The opening concert talks about the multi-layered role of the composer and the composition process, while also opening up to other forms of art, especially painting, in the desire to realize the synesthesia of sensations through music and go beyond the traditionally understood possibilities of music. Thus, the composer Tristan Murail, wondering how far music can go, pays more attention to the process than to its product, while for Clemens Gadenstätter, composing is the interaction of acoustic perception and all other senses and cognition in a process that he recognizes as necessarily culturally conditioned. His work was commissioned by MBZ in co-production with the Musikprotokoll festival, Graz. Davorin Kempf and Mirela Ivičević finally join the overflowing perspectives and synesthesia, the latter with the premiere of a piece for trumpet, organ and light design, while Kempf in the piece Plots and Colorsinspired by Piet Mondrian's painting style.
