Morton Feldman's "Coptic Light," inspired by Coptic textiles, is an orchestral expression of his interest in woven materials. The hr-Sinfonieorchester's concert connects this piece with works by Tania León, George Benjamin, and Sofia Gubaidulina, exploring cultural clashes, manuscript layers, and 20th-century Russian history, including the Cold War and Perestroika. The concert lasts approximately 115 minutes including intermission.
The hr-Sinfonieorchester has been associated with the Internationale Ferienkurse für Neue Musik in Darmstadt since its beginnings. At the 51st Darmstadt Summer Courses, it will present exceptional works to course participants from many countries as part of the final concert. Conducted by Pierre Bleuse, the program includes Morton Feldman's "String Quartet and Orchestra" with the Fabrik Quartett, and the world premiere of a new work for turntables and orchestra by Mariam Rezaei and Matthew Shlomowitz.
