The programme 'Nach Bach: Communicating vessels' will be performed next Tuesday.

 

Auditorio de Tenerife is a cultural space linked to the Department of Culture of Tenerife Island Council that is managed by the councillor Enrique Arriaga. Next Tuesday [23th] at 7:30 p.m the Auditorium welcomes a concert by pianist José Luis Castillo. The programme, entitled 'Nach Bach:Communicating vessels' offers an approach to Bach. The physical journey comprises his work ‘Capriccio on the departure of a beloved brother’, the opening piece of the concert. The style of the German composer, who transcribed and was transcribed by different authors, concludes with a spiritual journey that crystallises in the reflection of inner pain.

After this opening piece, the programme will continue with variations on the piece Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen (Weeping, lamenting, worrying, fearing), composed by Frank Liszt on the death of his daughter; the programme will continue with the Organ Concert in D minor BWV 596 composed by Vivaldi. This piece has undergone various modifications involving Bach himself and the Australian pianist William Murdoch. Castillo will then play three short pieces without interruption:  'Erbarm dich mein, o Herr Gott' (O God, be merciful to me), BWV 721; Requiem Op. 48: Agnus Dei, by Fauré, and Aus Liebe will mein Heiland sterben (Out of love my saviour is willing to die) from St Matthew Passion. 

José Luis Castillo (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 1976) premiered last December at Teatro Pérez Galdós in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, together with Alicia Ramos, the play Ad Libitum, with text and direction by Noemi Pérez. This work deals with Clara Schumann's struggle to be an artist and creator. After concluding his training in Gran Canaria, Madrid and New York, the pianist has offered recitals as a soloist in the Canary Islands, France, Germany, Ireland, Argentina, Guatemala, Mexico and the United States. He has also played with several orchestras like Symphony Orchestra of Tenerife, Gran Canaria Philharmonic Orchestra, Manhattan Philharmonia (New York) and the Youth Orchestra of Gran Canaria.
