Ustvolskaya! Automatic translate

September 18, 2019 at 19.00.

“Not religious”, “not chamber” - this is how Galina Ustvolskaya described her music. In an attempt to convey to everyone the importance and necessity of a new look at the already established Ustvolskaya actively fought against the cliched use of the concepts of chamberness, instrumentality, perception and listening already familiar to everyone: “If I put all my energy into my compositions, then I need to listen in a new way, also investing their strength! ”

In composing the program of the concert, which will take place on September 18 in the Rachmaninov Hall (19. 00), we tried to express the revolutionary nature of Ustvolskaya’s music and the challenge that she threw not only to music, but also to the clumsy, not accepting her world. In the compositions that will be heard in this concert, one can hear the diversity of the composer’s musical language: from the early Trio for clarinet, violin and piano (1949) to the last two compositions - Piano Sonatas No. 6 (1988) and Symphony No. 5 “Amen” (1989 -1990).
