Blue in Blue in Blue

A hallucinatory new world

The ocean has never been sailed more euphoniously in music than in Ravel’s Une barque sur l’océan. Ukrainian master pianist Antonii Baryshevksyi, winner of prestigious competitions, combines this enchanting piano piece with two other movements from Ravel’s iconic cycle Miroirs. Whales beneath the reflecting surface of the water come to life in George Crumb’s Vox Balaenae, a theatrical masterpiece for prepared piano, cello and flute: the musicians appear masked on stage that will be bathed in blue light. Also the perfect setting for Blue in blue in blue, the grand premiere piece for seven strings, singing glasses and piano, with which sound magician Maxim Shalygin pays homage to Crumb and immerses us in a hallucinatory new world.
