Concert introduction with Lea Vaterlaus at 5 pm in the Tellenhaus Ernen
Festival Concert 4 combines Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's popular Hebrides Overture with three works whose unstoppable energy causes veritable cascades of sound to flow into the audience.
Joan Towers Noon Dance creates fascinating, swirling and undulating soundscapes, and Franz Schubert's quartet movement draws the listener into the dramatic music with the strong pull of the first tremolo movement.
Felix Mendelssohn completed the third piano quartet shortly before his 16th birthday. It impresses with the brilliant piano part (based on Mendelssohn's extraordinary pianistic skills) in the fast movements - the dramatic first movement, the elfin, shimmering Scherzo and the rushing finale with virtuoso pianistic sound effects - interrupted only by the yearning, song-like Andante.
