Musical metamorphoses open the ears

Covering, adapting, arranging, transcribing… these seem like something exclusive to modern culture. But music has been adapted, rearranged and reworked throughout classical music history. During this Deep Listening Day, musical metamorphoses mislead your ears. You will hear well-known jazz standards in a quarter-tone style, grand Wagner arias and overtures on piano, or the age-old cantus firmus technique breathing new life into old music. Composer Karel Goeyvaerts also wove his way through stylistic extremes like a musical chameleon. Or is that just how it seems? Is there actually a homogeneous compositional oeuvre hiding behind these superficial transformations? Fine-tune your ears.

 

New formula! Create your own day full of exceptional, short listening experiences.

Several concerts will take place throughout the day. With your day ticket for this Deep Listening Day, you choose which concerts you attend. The concerts take place several times a day, you can choose the order yourself.

Maker Catalina Vicens
In the 24-25 season 'two' becomes Catalina Vicens' (1983) lucky number. In her second season as Maker, she is displaying her artistic duality in a duo of projects that are inextricably linked. During Deep Listening Day, using two historical instruments, she introduces us to the age-old 'cantus firmus' composing technique. 'Early' material is thus given a second (third, fourth, etc.) life in new compositions. During SLOW(36h), she applies this technique herself, using digital manipulation of the sound of early keyboards to construct new music. The existing thus becomes a fresh creation. Catalina the curator of Bologna’s unique Tagliavini instrument collection and Catalina the researcher-creator will both undoubtedly be delighted.
