VENICE BIENNALE _ FINAL CONCERT
Saturday 1 October 2011
Teatro alle Tese, Venice

> THE FULL CONCERT now online !

“Perhaps we are witnessing a sort of genetic mutation of western culture, of our tradition. We live in a world that makes not only thought, exploration and effort, but pencil and paper, practice and crafting as well, seem anachronistic. Now that everything is available at the click of a mouse, the temptation of erasing our memory is becoming increasingly evident, as we dream of becoming lighter. The 2011 Music Biennale talks about mutants, about something that is ending, at least in the form familiar to us now, to become something else”.
(Luca Francersconi, curator).

kathleen ferrier

a musical film by DIANE PERELSZTEJN


Filmmaker Diane Perelsztejn took advantage of the latest developments in sound technology to isolate the voice of Kathleen Ferrier in her illustrious recording of Mahler's 'The Song of the Earth', conducted by Bruno Walter. The extracted voice of Kathleen Ferrier has been transferred to Georges-Elie Octors, who analyzed and dissected the phrases sung this legendary singer. Then Ictus came into play, conducted by Octors, performing the chamber music version for twelve musicians realized by Arnold Schoenberg to merge again with the voice of Ferrier. 

.... and much more : unpublished testimonies introduced by Ferrier herself

"A truly admiring movie, completely different then the usual music documentary, where music remains often a mere pretext"  Rémy Stricker, Magazine Opéra
