Aurora Orchestra und Abel Selaocoe

Abel Selaocoe
„Four Spirits“
Konzert für Violoncello, Stimme und Orchester

Pause

Ludwig van Beethoven
Sinfonie Nr. 7 A-Dur op. 92

After the great success that the South African cellist, singer and composer Abel Selaocoe had at Konzerthaus last spring with the Bantu Ensemble and „Ancestral Memories“, we are delighted to welcome back this crossover artist between the musical cultures of European classical music and South Africa. Virtuoso on his instrument and with an expressive voice, with which Abel also masters an overtone singing style called Umngqokolo, he creates intense music full of suggestive and expressive power. This time he performs together with the experimental Aurora Orchestra, which plays by heart and whose programme includes Beethoven's Seventh alongside Abel's work „Four Spirits“.
