The works of three distinguished Cypriot composers take centre stagein the exciting and versatile ‘Cyprophonia 3’ concert series, under the baton of the renowned conductor Thomas Herzog.
The concert’s featured soloist is the wonderful Cypriot clarinetist George Georgiou, to whom the Clarinet Concertino composed by Artemis Aifotiti in 2015 is dedicated.
Breaking new ground, the CySO will perform the world premiere of Evis Sammoutis' Aeolusfor bass clarinet and string orchestra, a commission by the CySO Foundation. Inspired by Greek mythology, in the piece the bass clarinet depicts Aeolus in a multitude of sonic manifestations and contrasts, while the string orchestra acts mainly as an acoustic filter, reacting to the sound stimuli of the clarinet.
The work In Spiritum by Michalis Andronikou draws inspiration from folk music of various parts of the world,aiming thus to convey a sense of connection between people of different cultures.
Τhe concert concludes with Francis Poulenc's Sinfonietta, a masterpiece that effortlessly blends neoclassical elegance with exuberant energy.
