A production by PHACE, in cooperation with IGNM, ZZM and REAKTOR Wien

In Fast Darkness III: Moonwords, Chaya Czernowin embarks on a wild and virtuoso exploration of the unknown. Fast, sharp gestures, charged with over-the-top energy, indicate the existence of a far-reaching sound universe that only the imagination can penetrate. The two premieres in this program also promise fascinating, unknown sound worlds. Thomas Wally builds the intricate sound structures in his Concertino around the virtuoso and expressive possibilities of the violin at the center, while Bruno Strobl in Schatten pushes tonal, tonal and dynamic contrasts to the limit and creates differentiated rhythmic patterns. In Notturno in forma di una rosa, Daniela Terranova draws a more relaxed soundscape. The structures unfold leisurely to reveal new, tempting details again and again. In Immagini d’orizzonte, Pasquale Punzo looks at distant, indeterminate, blurred borderlines that remain variable throughout the course of the music and yet characterize the entire event. It is up to the listeners to define the width of the horizon.
