Gerard Costes - Sequenza V

Wednesdays of sound and body

Activity open to everyone and free of charge with a limited capacity of 55 people

Language: catalan

The proposal has been conceived as a commented concert.

First of all, Luciano Berio's Sequenza V for trombone will be performed. Then, some aspects of the work will be commented on and a space for dialogue with the audience will be opened. Finally, the piece will be performed again, allowing a new listening with a perspective enriched by the shared dialogue.
