Ensemble Modern / Sylvain Cambreling

In the organizer's words:

Of competing musicians and graffiti in big cities

What does classical music sound like today? Amazingly diverse, of course! And nobody could know this better than Frankfurt's Ensemble Modern - the leading ensemble for cutting-edge music that has been shaking up the classical music world for more than four decades. Under the direction of the accomplished star conductor Sylvain Cambreling, it performs works by two very different composers with whom the musicians have collaborated for many years: The Berlin-based South Korean composer Unsuk Chin and the German old master Helmut Lachenmann, whom the Ensemble Modern thus also congratulates on his 90th birthday.
