FRIDAY 27 NOVEMBER

Vortex Temporum

Kupka’s Piano tackles the pinnacle work of the French spectralist canon, Gerard Grisey’s monumental sextet Vortex Temporum. Taking a swirling figure from Ravel’s Daphnis and Chloé, Vortex pushes it to its limits, to its self-destruction, and then to its resurrection. To compliment the 40-minute masterpiece, the concert commences with Kupka percussionist Angus Wilson’s interpretation of Iannis Xenakis’ popular solo work, Rebonds A.

The ensemble invites audiences to experience contemporary music from the outside in.

This is the final concert in the 2015 Extra Mural series

extramural (adj)

1. involving representatives of more than one school: extramural athletics.
2. outside the walls or boundaries, as of a city or town or a university: extramural teaching; an extramural church.

In 2015 Kupka’s Piano present another four part concert series at the Judy. In these concerts, Kupka steps outside the wall, to take a good look at themselves, their world, and their place in all of space and time. From the confines of The Human Detained to the infinite expanse of Outer Sounds, the ensemble invites audiences to experience contemporary music from the outside in.

Supported by the Judith Wright Centre’s Space Program, made possible through Arts Queensland.
