Radio Night 2A project by Denis Schuler
fm 88Mhz – E.T. fm’s radio studio
September 11th 2009
11pm – 7am
The Eternal Tour Festival’s second radio night is, like the first, a great musical crossroads. This time the experimentation will be with voice and text. The presence of Anne Baudoux, actress, and Shirley Anne Hofmann, singer/instrumentalist, will create a space for speech to interact with instrumental music (electro, percussion, piano, clarinet and various wind instruments).

Rêveries solitairesConcert on September 10th at 22h Canadian-born musician Shirley Anne Hofmann now lives in Neuchâtel. Her specialty? A one-woman band! On stage she’s surrounded by all kinds of instruments like the tuba, euphonium, trumpet, accordion, but also various objects like pipes, a bird call, a megaphone… In this orchestra, melodies and sounds accumulate with her interpretation which she calls avant-garde folk. It is much like a music creation workshop that takes the shape of a concert, but also of a game and solitary reveries. |
The Harmonic Experience
Solo concert for harpsichord by Tamar Halperin and guests
Caves du Palais, Neuchâtel
September 9th 2009
8:30-9:30pm
Soloist and a doctor in musicology, Tamar Halperin will play a trans-chronological repertoire where the 18th, 20th and 21st centuries meet. Rousseau’s love for Italy and Nature is expressed in Galuppi’s music and is confronted with Rameau’s French court music. These ancient works echo a contemporary repertoire that updates questions of tonality, sound and affect. One can hear John Cage, György Ligeti or Karen Tanaka.
