PAS DE DEUX - AUFFORDERUNGEN ZUM TANZ

"Présence" is an exceptional composition. Bernd Alois Zimmermann compared the piece to a "thin layer of ice on which the foot can only linger for so long before it cracks". For her "Sai ballare?", Lisa Streich chose a quote from the final scene of the film "The 120 Days of Sodom": "Do you know how to dance?". Which the composer Jessie Montgomery would certainly answer in the affirmative: In "Strum", she unleashes a whirlwind of folk, rock and dance. Luigi Nono's late work "La lontananza" is a piece of moving sound. Nono, the musical wanderer, loved the journey more than the destination. His music dissolves time and space in constant movement.
