To mark the occasion of the 60th birthday of René Staar, founding member and artistic leader of the Ensemble Wiener Collage, as a birthday present the Ensemble will dedicate the premier performance of the complete version of his “Structures” for 15 instruments. The first five parts of this six-part work feature various aspects of five tonal structures which serve as source for a diversity of developments until all of the instruments are brought together in the concluding sixth movement, forming a grand finale.
The first half of the program will present Arnold Schönberg’s own arrangement of his Orchestrastücke, op. 16, together with the première of Austrian composer Wolfgang Suppan’s Idyll I.
