Violin and electronics do not form an everyday pairing. Top violinist Joseph Puglia, kindred spirit of the Muziekgebouw, demonstrates just how exciting that combination can be. As early as 1959, Henk Badings placed a violinist between two soundtracks. His Capriccio is futuristic music from the past, yet it remains as solid as ever. Kate Moore composed her kaleidoscopic Synaesthesia Suite (2014) for Puglia, now performed in an arrangement for the Fokker organ and therefore in meantone tuning. Movement is the theme that beautifully connects all four works in this concert.
This concert is made possible by the Huygens-Fokker Foundation.
