ABOUT THE EVENT
Duo Tarenna is excited to present its debut concert Journey on Eight Strings at The Arts House, generously supported by the National Arts Council. This concert showcases a range of contemporary Chinese violin-viola duos, placing them in dialogue with each other and with a widely-acknowledged masterwork of the repertory- Bohuslav Martinů’s Three Madrigals. Two works by renowned Chinese-American composers Bright Sheng and Chen Yi are counterposed against newly commissioned pieces by Singaporean Chinese composers Lee Jia Yi and Joseph Lim Soon Keong. Taken together, they present complex and different takes on Chinese culture in contemporary society, which are nonetheless informed in different ways by experiences of “the West”.
Concert attendees are cordially invited to an online post-concert dialogue on 1 May 2022 (Su) 9:00PM with composers Lee Jiayi and Joseph Lim on Zoom, where we revisit eclipse and Horse Horse Tiger Tiger, and chat about their inspirations, compositional process and more! There will also be an open Q&A, so don’t miss out! (Please fill in the form here if you would like to attend)
曲目简介
新创立的哲泽双重奏将在新加坡Arts House Chamber 荣幸呈现首次演出《八弦之旅》,国家艺术理事会鼎力支持本次演出。小提琴与中提琴的搭配在西方古典乐独特又罕见;在这次演出中,哲泽双重奏将演奏为这特别的组合作曲的五首精彩曲目。著名美籍华裔作曲家盛宗亮(Bright Sheng) 和陈怡 (Chen Yi) 的《Angel Fire Duo》与《Happy Tune》是西方古典乐和华族文化碰撞后的典范作曲,而捷克当代作曲家 Bohuslav Martinů 的《Three Madrigals》具有强烈的民族色彩。除此之外,我们委托了两位新加坡本地青年作曲家林顺强和李嘉怡为哲泽双重奏创作曲目,借这次机会表达和抒发新加坡特殊的华族文化韵味。
我们也邀请观众们参与我们演出后的线上讨论会,日期时间为5月1日晚上9点钟。讨论会中您将与作曲家李佳怡和林顺强回顾曲目《eclipse》和《马马虎虎》,聊一下他们作曲灵感、过程与更多精彩内容!结束前您将会有机会向作曲家问问题,请不要错过这个机会!(如有兴趣,请填写表格)
