Description
The EVM presents Misantango, where Latin Mass meets Argentine rhythms, featuring Julien Tudisco and Johanna Hernandez. In the second half, the Swiss Youth Choir performs Liberté, an a cappella program conducted by Nicolas Fink.
The Martigny Vocal Ensemble invites you to discover Misantango, a spellbinding work where the fervor of the Latin Mass meets the passion of Argentine rhythms. The bandoneon, the symbol of tango, will be played by Julien Tudisco, while Johanna Hernandez will lend her voice to this intense musical masterpiece.
Next, the Swiss Youth Choir (CSJ) will present its Liberté program, featuring works by Schütz, Ravel, Mauersberger, and Poulenc’s cantata Figure Humaine. These pieces bridge the past and the present and musically highlight the struggle for freedom in all its dimensions: as a call for peace, a remembrance of suffering, and a youthful, inspired perspective on our world today. The CSJ concert choir brings together some fifty singers from across the country, aged 16 to 26. With a repertoire consisting exclusively of a cappella pieces, the choir celebrates the art of vocal music under the direction of Nicolas Fink.
