John Orfe, Alarm Will Sound's pianist, performs excerpts from the first movement of the György Ligeti Piano Concerto.
On Friday, March 16 at 7:30 p.m. in Zankel Hall, Alarm Will Sound presents a multimedia experience featuring the music of György Ligeti in a program titled "This Music Should Not Exist." Resembling a podcast, the March 16 concert at Carnegie Hall blends music and pre-recorded sounds to create a soundscape of György Ligeti’s life—from his escape from a Nazi labor camp to his seeking refuge in Vienna during Soviet occupation of his native Hungary. Works featured in this performance include Ligeti’s "Continuum," Piano Concerto, and Chamber Concerto with the music’s dense melodic webs and conflicting rhythms—along with a host of other experimental sounds, shapes, and forms—embodying the composer’s tumultuous life. A pre-concert talk starts at 6:30 p.m. in Zankel Hall with Alan Pierson, Artistic Director and Conductor of Alarm Will Sound, and violist and host of WQXR’s Meet The Composer Nadia Sirota, in conversation with Jeremy Geffen, Senior Director and Artistic Adviser at Carnegie Hall.⠀
