Opus 111 (CANCELED)

Attention - due to the corona measures this concert will be canceled.

Fabrizio Cassol, the saxophonist at Aka Moon, has been exploring Ludwig van Beethoven’s last piano sonata, Opus 111. This monumental piece is an emotional roller coaster and a fine example of musical architecture. Following productions such as VSPRS (Monteverdi’s Vespers), Pitié! (Bach’s St Matthew Passion) and Requiem for L. (Mozart’s Requiem), Opus 111 is a logical step for Aka Moon in its journey through intercultural re-readings of classical repertoire. The trio – Cassol plus Michel Hatzigeorgiou on the electric bass and Stéphane Galland on drums – is joined by artists such as Fredy Massamba, an African storyteller of great expressive power who is inspired by Ludwig van Beethoven’s letters.
