Bits and bobs

Avanti! is delighted to have Meeri Pulaka, who performed Saariaho’s Émilie in Suvisoito, as the soloist for the Verkatehta concert.

Bernhard Lang’s DW16.4. – Songbook I.4 demands acrobatics from the soprano, from Björk-like vocalism to horseradish. The instrumental ensemble supports and tightens its soloist’s expression with rock and jazz-inspired, often slightly jerky, comicism. A great work not to be missed!

Programme:

Michael Maierhof: Shopping 4

Enno Poppe: Meat

Agata Zubel: Friction

Bernhard Lang: DW 16.4 ‘Songbook I.4
