Concert in the Wild # 6 Macrocosmos

“Concert in the Wild” presents a very special one on Saturday, June 12th, 2021

Chamber music concert.

The fascinating program spans an arc from the delicate music of the baroque to classical music

on neo-romanticism and contemporary classical music with works by Abel, Bach, Chausson, Danielpour, Delibes,

Previn and Crumb. A thematic focus can be found in the title of George Crumbs

Piano masterpiece "Macrocosm". In every work in the program you will find topics from which you can

could say that they articulate the connectedness, the music about time, culture, language and space

away.
