Chamber Orchestra - Stormen Concert Hall
Program Info: Henning Kraggerud & the Chamber Orchestra at the Music Festival Week
On the last day of the Music Festival Week, the stage is set for temperament, darkness and magnificent musical images, when Henning Kraggerud and the Arctic Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra invite the audience into a concert program where myths, the forces of nature and the supernatural are given free rein.
This is music that burns, rages and whispers. Throughout the history of music, devils, witches, storms and the inexplicable have ignited the imagination of composers – and created some of the most dramatic, intense and pictorial works ever written. Here the fearsome and the seductive meet, the temperament of nature and the deeply human.
From Hildegard von Bingen's religious visions to Tartini's mythical Devil's Trill, from Haydn's earthquakes and Vivaldi's storms to Schubert's Erlkönig and Mussorgsky's witch figure Baba Yaga, the audience is thrown through a contrasting musical landscape. The program also includes newer music where darkness, memories and human dignity are at the center – including through works by John Williams and Henning Kraggerud himself.
Henning Kraggerud is known for his combination of virtuosity and storytelling, and together with the Arctic Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra, he creates a concert that both hits the stomach and opens up for reflection. The result is an intense, pictorial and emotional experience – where the music is allowed to be both drama, landscape and story.
