BAROSSA DEUTSCH Konzert

Sunday 15 September 2024 2pm

Langmeil Lutheran Church

7 Maria Street, Tanunda SA


Following on from our successful Reflection and Inflection concert last year, we are delighted to be invited by the Barossa Deutsch Language Association, in conjunction with Adelaide German Week and supported by Langmeil Wines, to present a new concert in 2024, celebrating language, culture and landscape.

In a musical exploration spanning two-and-a-quarter centuries, contemporary Australian chamber music is interlaced with works by two great figures of the German classical music canon. Both of the new works were premiered in 2023 and commissioned especially for and about the Barossa Valley.

Beethoven - Trio in B-flat major op 11 (1798) for clarinet, cello and piano

David John Lang -  "Gomersal: An Appreciation" (2023) for cello and piano

Max Reger - selected movements from Suite for Solo Viola op. 131d (1916)

Robert Davidson - "Barossa Deutsch" for clarinet, viola, piano and audio track (2023)

Josh van Konkelenberg, piano
Steph Wake-Dyster, clarinet

2020 PERSPECTIVES TRILOGY

 

Three composers. Three Perspectives of This Time.

 

We commissioned three composers to draw on the thoughts and feelings arising from the global pandemic of 2020. In collaboration with composers, players and a sound engineer, we explored ways in which elements of spontaneity and deep connection might still be present in a very different form of “chamber music” - one in which recordings were made from isolation, and following the guidelines of physical distancing. The resulting trilogy is available online from Dec 14 2020 at kegelstattensemble.bandcamp.com

 

We are delighted to be working with composers Jakub JANKOWSKI, Luke ALTMANN and Peter De JAGER and audio engineer Sam LENCH.

Kegelstatt is dedicated to facilitating approachable experiences of great works and lesser known gems of the chamber music repertoire, especially those rarely heard live due to their scoring for non-standard combinations of instruments.
