Programme Note
Join us for the premiere online screening of this new digital performance on Wednesday, 25 November 2020 at 7pm UK time.
Violinist Max Baillie combines dazzling technique with emotional range in this new type of recital in the Colnaghi Gallery. More intimate than a front-row seat, watch the 16th century triptych and spiral staircase come to life as the music unfolds.
The schedule for the premiere event is:
7:00pm UK time: Online premiere screening of Historiae de Divini // Tales of the Divine.
7:40pm UK time: Live online video discussion about the film, digital performances and music-art collaborations with Max Baillie, Jonathan Berman (the director) and Chloe Stead, Senior Global Director at Colnaghi Gallery. Audience participation is very welcome!
The programme is Partita No. 2 in D Minor by Johann Sebastian Bach, and Louange à l’immortalité de Jésus from Quartet For The End Of Time by Olivier Messiaen.
The art is: Anonymous (Antwerp School, first half of the 16th century) and Jacob De Backer (Antwerp, c. 1555-1585).
The performance was filmed at the Colnaghi Gallery in London. The director is Jonathan Berman, the orchestral conductor.
British-German violinist and violist Max Baillie is sought after as soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral leader in the UK and abroad. His musical life reflects his interest in the cross-pollination of musical styles, having led Bjork’s string orchestra in the Royal Albert Hall, recorded with guitar maestro John Williams, and dueted with Bobby McFerrin in New York. From folk tunes in the Welsh hills to major festivals across the world, Max leads a chameleonic life embracing classical, improvisation, and appearances on stages big and small.
Historiae de Divini // Tales of the Divine is part of FOUND SPACES, a programme of online events including the premieres of 4 new digital concerts all made for the screen. There'll be talks, premieres, food plus music events, on-demand viewing and more. Join us in Greengage's continued efforts to push the boundaries of digital performances, make paid work for artists and demonstrate the power of the arts to bring people together.
Your ticket purchases directly support the artists, all of whom are paid by Greengage for their work.
After the 25th, this filmed performance will be available to access on demand on Greengage's website.
