  • I Silenti the Next Creation of Fabrizio Cassol and Tcha Limberger Directed by Lisaboa Houbrechts
    I SILENTI THE NEXT CREATION OF FABRIZIO CASSOL AND TCHA LIMBERGER DIRECTED BY LISABOA HOUBRECHTS Notre Dame de la détérioration © The Estate of Erwin Blumenfeld, photo Erwin Blumenfeld vers 1930 THE GOAL For several years Fabrizio Cassol has been concentrating on this form, said to be innovative, between concert, opera, dance and theatre. It brings together several artistic necessities and commitments, with the starting point of previously composed music that follows its own narrative. His recent projects, such as Coup Fatal and Requiem pour L. with Alain Platel and Macbeth with Brett Bailey, are examples of this. “I Silenti proposes to be the poetical expression of those who are reduced to silence, the voiceless, those who grow old or have disappeared with time, the blank pages of non-written letters, blindness, emptiness and ruins that could be catalysers to other ends: those of comfort, recovery, regeneration and beauty.” THE MUSIC Monteverdi’s Madrigals, the first vocal music of our written tradition to express human emotions with its dramas, passions and joys. These Madrigals, composed between 1587 and 1638, are mainly grouped around three themes: love, separation and war. The music is rooted, for the first time, in the words and their meaning, using poems by Pétraque, Le Tasse or Marino. It is during the evolution of this form and the actual heart of these polyphonies that Monteverdi participated in the creation of the Opera as a new genre. Little by little the voices become individualized giving birth to “arias and recitatives”, like suspended songs prolonging the narrative of languorous grievances.

I tried to compose elegant and romantic music to frame my comedies in contrast to the tramp character, for elegant music gave my comedies an emotional dimension. Musical arrangers rarely understood this. They wanted the music to be funny. But I would explain that I wanted no competition, I wanted the music to be a counterpoint of grave and charm, to express sentiment, without which, as Hazlitt says, a work of art is incomplete. (...) Nothing is more adventurous and exciting than to hear the tunes one has composed played for the first time by a fifty piece orchestra.“ - Charles Chaplin 3 WELKOM De magie van Charlie Chaplin blijft ook na bijna 100 jaar fantastisch indrukwekkend, ontroerend en hilarisch.

Time and again we have attempted to show the importance of the influence of the professional field at large. We organise all sorts of direct exchanges between departments and profes- sional artists’ expertise, methods and imaginations. The AIR programme is the university’s preferred instrument for initiating interactions with profes- sional practice through unique projects and research programmes that go off the beaten track. In this issue of ON AIR we are once again presenting a wide range of AIRs hosted by the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, the Academy of Architecture, the Reinwardt Academy, de Theaterschool and the Education in Arts masters programme. In October 2015 the Flemish Belgian cultural journal rekto:verso compiled a number of inspiring reflections on the cur- rent state of art education in the Benelux. As well as professional expertise and ideals for the future, this edition examined the quantitative focus of the market.

    A CONCERT CALLED LANDSCAPE A CONCERT CALLED LANDSCAPE JOSSE DE PAUW KRIS DEFOORT TRIO 1 A CONCERT CALLED LANDSCAPE Following the success of AN OLD MONK, JOSSE DE PAUW and KRIS DEFOORT, LANDER GYSELINCK & NICOLAS THYS are joining each other on stage again. As a child, our ‘landscape’ may be our be- droom, or a corner of grandma and grandpa’s attic, a place where we play and discover things. As an adult, the landscape may mean the quiet of the countryside and the bustle of the city, or just the opposite. Josse De Pauw is giving a voice to our landscape. ‘It’s a misty day in autumn, and my surroundings have vanished into the haze. Later in the morning the air clears and I can again see further; trees and houses assume sharper outlines. By noon the sun finally breaks through, the clouds disperse and the horizon expands into the distant line in which all things are united in a great whole: the world has become a landscape.’ (from: ‘Filosofie van het Landschap’ by TON LEMAIRE) 2 A CONCERT CALLED LANDSCAPE CREDITS concept & play JOSSE DE PAUW music KRIS DEFOORT TRIO (KRIS DEFOORT, NICOLAS THYS & LANDER GYSELINCK) scenography ANNE MARCQ sound BRECHT BEUSELINCK light JANNES DIERYNCK production manager KRISTEL DEWEERDT production LOD MUZIEKTHEATER coproduction DESINGEL ANTWERPEN with the support of THE TAX SHELTER MEASURE BY THE BELGIAN FEDERAL GOUVERNMENT tax shelter partner FLANDERS TAX SHELTER thanks to DIENST CULTUUR GENT, STAD GENT 3 A CONCERT CALLED LANDSCAPE TOUR 2019 10-11.10 BE NTGent, Ghent 12.10 BE CC Westrand, Dilbeek 16.10 CH Théâtre Forum Meyrin, Geneva 25.10 BE CC Gildhof, Tielt 04.12 BE CC Sint-Niklaas, Sint-Niklaas 05.12 BE CC Belgica, Dendermonde 2020 24.01 BE CC De Spil, Roeselare 11.02 FR Le Manège Maubeuge 22.03 NL Theater aan het Vrijthof, Maastricht 05-07.05 BE KVS, Brussels 15.05 BE C-Mine, Genk 26.05 BE De Kortrijkse Schouwburg, Kortrijk 04.06 BE CC Berchem, Antwerp 04-05.06 BE deSingel, Antwerp 4 A CONCERT CALLED LANDSCAPE JOSSE DE PAUW ON A CONCERT CALLED LANDSCAPE At the end of each day, a man goes to the stable behind his house.
