Portrait Ruth Crawford Seeger: Solos / Duos / Ensemble

Chamber music for the matinée - but here as a special event: With a strictly choreographed concert dramaturgy, the Ensemble Modern traces the multitude of experimental forms that the composer Ruth Crawford Seeger used in her short career in the interwar years, from dissonant counterpoint to serial technique.



The third part of the portrait series presents the chamber music work of the US composer.
