The Magnetic Bach concert programme continues in three video stories
In mid-March, THE Lūznavas manor was intended to be the “Magnetic Bach” concert programme of the baroka čellistes and electronic music duet “Blue divided by Blue” (Switzerland), in which the classic Baha Suite Cells and electronic music merge with the ancient music in non-traditional concert performance, the first matrix. As a result of the emergence of an emergency situation, the concert program came into a virtual concert, but the three programmes of the programme have received video visualization, which was created by three video artists from Switzerland and France.
The “Magnetic Bach” project brings together the musicians living in Switzerland – the chelliste Ilze Grudule and the duet “Blue divided by Blue” – Semple artist Vincent Flückiger and Moog-synthesizer and electronics artist Fred Chapui (Fred Chapui). In recent years, through the merging of ancient and electronic music, several programmes have been created – in 2014, the musical postcho “house for Mītelim” was created for the life of the Riga baroque composer Johana Gotfrīd Mītel, in 2016 “re: Frics”, celebrating the 300-year anniversary of the Geneva Composer and viola Viroza Gaspara Frica (both of whom have played in Latvia), and in 2018 the “Flow My Tears – das lette Fest” (“Laciet, my tears – the last feast”), which was the music of the English Renaissance skaņraža John Dauland, in a modern framework. The musicians of “Blue divided by Blue” are inspired by the abstract impressionist art, the aesthetic of the 20 th century art direction, one of the most brightest representatives being Mark Rootko, with which the name of one of the artist's works has been enriched in the name of the duet.
In mid-March, THE FIRST matrix of the Magnetic Bach concert programme was planned AT Lūznavas, but due to the emergence of an emergency situation, the concert was moved to the virtual environment. However, while continuing to think about new forms for listening to listeners, with the support of Lūznavas manor, three concert-program sounds have become a sort of tryptihu and have received video visualizations created by the environment artists from Switzerland and France. The first video for “Prélude” was produced by the Swiss film director Lionel Wirz, who was also able to meet as a professional tango dancer in 2016 at the festival “baroque music day Rēzekne” in “re: Frics”, the second track “Sarabande” was produced by Swiss multimicroist, project participant Vincent Fliciger, and the third Marseille film “Urban Prod” video artist, Frenchman Morgan Burdo (Mörgan Bourdeau). At present, every lead IN THE Lūznavas Manor YoutuTube channel has an opportunity to watch all triphih videos:
Prélude
Sarabande
Bourrée
Thinking about the Magnetic Bach concert programme, the chelliste Ilze Grudule admits that Baha's sweaty chelle solo has become a cult repertoire and a new, unseen look at them might seem impossible. The chella compositions written in the French dance tradition of the 18 th century of Baha have experienced a variety of plays, ranging from traditional concert format to music dialogue with dance, fine art, theatre and contemporary music – acoustic, electronic or even technologic music. Now the beauty and perfection of Baha alemanda, curiosity, sarabanda, Burr, generous and menuetic beauty and perfection, have led not only to a musical new view, but also to visual stories. The Latvian chelliste, who is living in Switzerland, says that although the concert of the show will remain in memory as the first to be cancelled and followed by many others due to the pandemic of the virus, the “Magnetic Bach” project gave the project a new form of expression and an opportunity to experience it to a much wider audience.
