description

Flutists play with the airflow of their breath and turn the most fleeting element into sounds. The FLAUTANDO KÖLN air players trace the secret correspondence between elements, signs of the zodiac and musical keys. Scholars have tried putting the knowledge of a harmonious world coherence into a system. Composers do not always stick to systems, but FLAUTANDO clearly demonstrate the fact that they use musical keys not just randomly. Equipped with an impressive range of recorders the quartet has creatively annexed well-known pieces from 400 years of musical history and they join up with singer Ursula Thelen to ginger up the zodiac.

Event is in the past.
