Pfingstfestspiele: François-Xavier Roth dirigiert Werke von Boulez und Bruckner
The Festspielhaus Baden-Baden celebrates Pierre Boulez's 100th birthday with several concerts, including two of his "younger" works paired with Bruckner's last symphony. Boulez admired Bruckner and played a key role in his recognition. The program features "Figures – Doubles – Prismes," where figures are varied and doubled, concluding with a new perspective on the earlier work. A vocal piece inspired by E. E. Cummings's poetry experiments combines text and music.
