TWILIGHT – Purcell and his Fairy Queen

Description

Musikere: Barokorkesteret Arte dei Suonatori; Andreas Arend, lut og Fredensborg Slotskirkes Pigekor, dir. Cille Buch Musik af Henry Purcell (1659-1695) At opleve klangen fra 40 pigestemmer løfte sig mod taget af Trinitatis kirke, er ligeså magisk som når solen påbegynder sin aftengang, himlen indhylles i et væld af farver og ganske langsomt går alt mod tusmørket. Nattens stille magi tager over og smitter i hele rummet og musikken løfter sig mod himlen og farver den, som var det selve solen der går ned. Cille Buch er korets dirigent og leder, som med sin stærke musikalitet sammen med pigerne skaber en stemningsfuld verden og åbner døren ind til skønheden ved musikkens væsen. ”Twilight” er en stemningsfuld koncert hvor Purcells smukke univers omslutter lytterne og hvor pigekorets og orkesterets smukke klang og indlevelse i musikken giver tusmørket og natten sin magiske kraft. To experience the sound of forty young female voices rising toward the vaults of Trinitatis Church is as magical as watching the sun begin its evening descent. The sky becomes filled with a multitude of colours, and slowly everything moves toward twilight. The quiet magic of the night takes over, spreading throughout the space as the music ascends heavenward, colouring the air as if it were the sunset itself. The choir’s conductor and artistic director, Cille Buch, together with the singers, creates an atmospheric musical world through her strong musicianship, opening the door to the beauty and essence of music. Twilight is an evocative concert in which Purcell’s beautiful musical universe envelops the audience. Through the choir’s and orchestra’s rich sound and deep musical expression, twilight and night are imbued with their own magical power.
