Dream sequences, moonlight, melancholy — with this atmospherically dense program, Composer in Residence Brett Dean and the Karajan Academy lead into nocturnal worlds of sound and shadow: Erich Wolfgang Korngold's late-Romantic string sextet conjures up the dazzling magic of the Belle Époque, György Kurtág's surreal piece... quasi-una fantasia... appears like a distant echo of Beethöth Moonlight Sonata. Brett Dean juxtaposes this with two of his own works: his suggestive dream sequence and the dark epitaph, a touching homage to five deceased artist friends.
