With: Braunwald Music Week Choir and Vocal Ensemble Patrick Secchiari, conductor Simone Roggen, violin Eszter Major, violin Ada Meinich, viola Karolina Öhman, cello Alexander Ruef, piano This concert centres on works by the contemporary Norwegian composer Ola Gjeilo. Gjeilo’s neo-classical compositions enjoy worldwide acclaim. Gjeilo’s choral works are characterised by dense, atmospheric soundscapes, often built from polyphonic clusters and sustained chords. Gjeilo likes to draw on texts from the Latin church-music tradition, which gives his works a timeless, spiritual quality. In addition to Gjeilo, works by Eriks Esenvalds (Latvia) and Eric Whitacre (USA) are also performed; their compositions are likewise among the highlights of modern choral music. Whitacre, whose style is often described as “neo-impressionist”, creates an aesthetic link to Gjeilo’s music.
