Friday the Thirteenth: Schoenberg Ives 150

FRIDAY THE THIRTEENTH:

Arnold Schoenberg 150 + Charles Ives 150

Kim Bastin  piano,  Linda Kent  organ

The Astra Choir and soloists, conducted by John McCaughey

Friday the Thirteenth of September is the 150th birthday of Arnold Schoenberg. A few weeks later follows the 150th of Charles Ives. This extra concert in Astra's 2024 season brings together a brief hour of musical parrying between two giants of the last century, whose mutual respect was deep. Choruses and song, piano and organ  celebrate in small dimensions the large contrasting instincts of a remarkable pair of  figures who changed the sound of a century.
