1st Half: Bruno Heinen Solo

2nd Half: Bruno Heinen/Camerata Alma Viva

The dynamic ensemble Camerata Alma Viva and renowned jazz pianist/composer Bruno Heinen has embarked on a daring new collaboration. They have recorded theit take on one of the most recognisable and oft performed works in all classical music. Heinen’s Four Seasons is a completely new composition. Rather than an arrangement of the Vivaldi, Heinen to answer the question posed to him by the Camerata. If Vivaldi were alive today, what might a new Four Seasons sound like? Heinen explores a written and improvised language somewhere between jazz and impressionism to attempt to answer. With influences from the historically informed performance practice (emphasising the baroque spirit of freedom and transparency) and the language of of modern jazz improvisation.

They will be launching their album with a solo set from Heinen in the first half and their Changing of the Seasons in the second.

Time: 20.00 to 22.30

Standard: – £15.00
