STRAUSS METAMORPHOSEN MITTENDRIN:
INSIDE A MUSICAL MASTERPIECE
February 2019… We entered a labyrinth of music, memory and moral questioning, as the Ensemble of Five Senses Music, featuring superb orchestral players from all over Europe, literally took us inside Richard Strauss’s Metamorphosen for 23 Solo Strings. (See player profiles below.)
Emerging from the destruction of Germany’s cultural heritage in 1943-44, Strauss’s intensely moving meditation was lovingly opened up, its strands examined and revealed by conductor Tom Seligman, in the intimate but other-worldly setting of the Kuppelhalle at silent green.
