About

An evening from the "Another Space" cycle will connect music that changes the usual auditory experience and takes the academic scene beyond familiar forms. Boulez, Berio, Theodorakis, and the world premiere of Raevaya's composition come together in a program where strict thought, orchestral freedom, and rare timbres create a tense, vibrant, and unpredictable sound. The "Another Space" cycle has long been perceived as a territory of musical risk, where listeners are invited to step beyond the usual concert route. This time, the Russian National Orchestra under the direction of Dmitry Yurovsky assembles a program that combines iconic names from the 20th-century musical avant-garde, rare repertoire, and a world premiere. Such an evening is aimed at an audience that wants to hear how academic music speaks the language of timbre, structure, energy, and internal tension. The program includes Pierre Boulez's Livre pour cordes, a composition in which the orchestral fabric seems to be constantly changing and constructs a new logic of sound right before the listeners' eyes. Alongside it is Chemins III by Luciano Berio for viola, nine instruments, and orchestra, where the solo part becomes the center of a complex musical movement. Violist Sergey Poltavsky here acts as a guide through a rich and multilayered sound space that demands maximum concentration from both the musicians and the audience. Particular attention is drawn to the world premiere - "Seraphim" by Alexandra Raevaya for saxophone and orchestra. The saxophone part performed by Yulia Bikhovets promises a special color in the overall dramaturgy of the evening. A premiere always carries additional interest: the audience hears the composition for the first time, without preconceived expectations. It is in such moments that one feels particularly keenly that academic music remains a living art. The program concludes with the music of Mikis Theodorakis for Greek tragedies. After the intellectual density of Boulez and Berio, this layer sounds like another way to speak about drama - through ritual gesture, stage action, and internal tension.
