Arvo Pärt Fratres
George Gershwin Catfish Row: Symphonic suite from "Porgy and Bess"
Julia Wolfe Body Language
Louis Andriessen Tapdance - Concerto for percussion and large ensemble
𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬
Belgian National Orchestra
Andre de Ridder (conductor)
Colin Currie (percussion)
For one evening, percussion takes center stage with not one but two percussion concertos. Colin Currie shines in Julia Wolfe’s Body Language and Louis Andriessen’s Tapdance, moving between marimba, timpani, clapping, and a variety of other instruments. With striking rhythms and unexpected sonorities, these pieces offer a fresh perspective on the symphony orchestra.
Alongside these concertos, Arvo Pärt’s Fratres creates a meditative dialogue between strings and percussion, marked by simplicity and introspection.
Finally, with the Catfish Row suite—featuring themes from Gershwin’s iconic opera Porgy and Bess—the full orchestra comes together to deliver one of the finest fusions of jazz and classical music.
