Swiss music with rarely performed works by Klaus Huber, Frank Martin and Heinz Holliger.
Heinz Holliger as an oboist and as a composer: from his early works for piano to his most recent works, such as the «Etudes» for solo harp, his compositional range spans; plus music by his companion Klaus Huber, here also with his earlier works in the programme. This «rencontre» of Swiss music from the 1950s and 1960s will of course also feature Frank Martin. The programme features exciting, in part almost forgotten music from a time of new beginnings.
The performing musicians, the Swiss Chamber Soloists, are musicians from Switzerland or who teach and perform at universities in Switzerland, as well as the Swiss Chamber Academy, young students who will be given a platform to perform together with experienced musicians.
