"Beren and Lúthien"
Friday, 02/21/2025 20:00 HfMT, JazzHall

With the concert "Beren and Lúthien", the audience can expect a special musical journey into the fascinating world of Tolkien's mythology.
Based on the moving story from J.R.R. Tolkien's "Silmarillion", "Beren and Lúthien" tells the legend of the love between a mortal man and an elven princess. This timeless story is set to music by Johannes Knoll's eight-piece Large Ensemble. The outstanding soloists take on the role of a hero, for example, and find themselves in a duel with a giant dog. The soloists are repeatedly replaced by large orchestral sounds reminiscent of Stravinsky, Mahler or Bach. This mixture of soloists and band sound is reminiscent of Gil Evans with Miles Davis or Duke Ellington's larger works, the great masters of orchestral jazz.
