"Melancholy in motion" Spring concert Royal Toonkunstkoor Concordia conducted by Tjalling Wijnstra

Concert

Saturday 12 April


The varied programme consists of two modern choral works and an instrumental intermezzo.
Eternal Light - Howard Goodall
Intermezzo - Preludio - Villa Lobos
Misatango - Martín Palmeri

Eternal Light is a contemporary requiem in which peace, comfort and lightness play a major role. Goodall uses, in addition to old Latin texts, English poetry to shed new light on the age-old requiem concept.
The result is a beautiful requiem for the living, a comfort for those who remain behind.
Misatango by Palmeri has the form of a mass in Latin. The music is a combination of two styles: the tango and choral music. The accordion plays a prominent role in the expressive instrumental passages.
This compelling music shows how melancholy and movement come together in harmony and passion!
