„An Instant Contemporary Classic“: London Philharmonic Orchestra kündigt „A House of Call“ an

Im Southbank Center London kündigt das London Philharmonic Orchestra die britische Erstaufführung des Orchesterzyklus' für den 25. März 2023 an.

„Composer Heiner Goebbels calls it ‚an imaginary notebook‘, and the title A House of Call comes from Finnegans Wake. But words are only a jumping-off point in this evening-long adventure for orchestra and audience alike: they’re a source of stimulation, of provocation, of distant memories and new beginnings, drawn from literature, conversation and cultures ranging from central Asia to South America, as well as Goebbels’s own journeys, personal encounters and explorations in the archives. Sounds incredible? Wait till you hear it, as the LPO presents a premiere without precedent: the first UK hearing for an instant contemporary classic.“
