Alex Nante - "O Nata Lux"

Première mondiale de O Nata Lux d'Alex Nante. 

Over the years, Alex Nante has become a widely recognised and sought-after symphonic composer. This season, the Argentinian composer is not only in residence with the Orchestre national de Lille conducted by Alexandre Bloch, but will also benefit from other collaborations with other prestigious ensembles under batons of the highest order. Starting on 20 February, at the initiative of Kent Nagano, the famous Haydn Orchestra of Bolzano will perform during a decentralised concert in Trento the world premiere of O Nata Lux, conceived as a "luminous finale" (in the composer's own words) to a programme which brings together Haydn (Les Adieux) and Gubaidulina (Sieben Worte). A new chapter in the artist's cycle on light, as the score "always maintains a certain transparency, like a luminous and ritualistic evocation".
