Whether solo, in duo or in trio, the three musicians of the Munich GEDOK ensemble have put together a diverse range of expressive miniatures of contrasting soundscapes.
The French composer Mélanie Bonis is represented with a late romantic piano solo, the British composer Rebecca Clarke, daughter of a native of Munich, emigrated to the USA in 1916 and composed multiple award-winning chamber music works. With “Schmetterling”, the Armenian Narine Khachatryan (*1979) has composed a new work especially for the ensemble, which will be premiered on this evening. Her sound language is influenced by Armenian folk music and sacred music.
Other works by renowned Munich-based female composers such as Gloria Coates, Konstantia Gourzi, Dorothee Eberhardt and Dorothea Hofmann round off the ensemble’s multifaceted programme of musical treasures.
