“My entire relationship with music is such that I always try to reach its limits” says Heinz Holliger. In this 80th birthday tribute, the orchestra encounters the transistor radios and mouth organs of Pneuma. Ad marginem re-imagines the colours of Paul Klee as music from the very margins of sound. And violinist Ilya Gringolts brings all his virtuosity to bear on the Violin Concerto that Holliger wrote “as if in a delirium” in 1995.
