Ensemble Modern III Portrait Ruth Crawford Seeger: Solos / Duos / Ensemble
Philharmonie Berlin, Chamber Music Hall (Berlin)
A matinée of chamber music – but in this case a special event: in a strictly choreographed concert design, the Ensemble Modern traces the numerous experimental forms that composer Ruth Crawford Seeger employed in her brief career in the interwar years, from dissonant counterpoint to serial techniques. The third part of this portrait series presents the US composer’s chamber works.
