On April 13th, Francesco Tristano will be at Thüringer Bachwochen presenting Goldberg City Variations. Where he draws a new vest of his famous Goldberg Variations, a tribute to the composer and architect Iannis Xenakis and his idea of the Cosmic City. Based on this, Tristano has developed a visual design concept, which is generated in real time by his own game. Then, on a large projection surface, a city is created, live-controlled by the music and built from the musical structure of Bach’s work.
Programm:
Johann Sebastian Bach
Goldberg Variations BWV 988
Golberg City Variations mixes the fantasy of Xenakis, the greek pioneer who imagined the future of urban re development, with Bach’s variation.
The program includes Goldberg Variations BWV 988 (original and edited by Francesco Tristano).
