The members of Lemur perform their own music, composed and improvised. Moving the Stones is a five part open form piece for 4-10 players consisting of a circular grafic representation that undergoes a slow transformation from part to part. The parts have the following titles: Air, Tremolo, Extremes, Combinations and Moving the stones.
We will also hear Canzone di Ringraziemento for solo flute by the modern classical composer Salvatore Sciarrino, whose music „leads to a different way of listening, a global emotional realization, of reality as well as of one’s self“ and Concerto for Contrabass and tape by the much less performed Norwegian composer Bjørn Fongaard who uses the sound of his prepared microtonal guitar as a backing track for his 41 concertos for solo instrument and tape.
