Bizarre objects | An evening with Adam Kondor’s music      

Concert of the Metrum Ensemble

Ádám Kondor is one of the most original creators of Hungarian music life. His works are often unclassifiable and requirie extra preparation from both performers and audience. Among the main characteristics of his music  are the stable structure, the unexpected  turns of the musical lines and a huge need for space. One of the most treasured ventures of the Metrum Ensemble is to perform and promote  this unusual oeuvre.

Bizarre Objects, a series of 15 works containing many hours of music, is a storage of real surprises in both its materials and instrumentation. Its magnitude would be perceptible if, according to the composer’s original concept, the whole work was performed in whole.

This concert presents about one-fifth of this huge sound-flow, letting us to glimpse at  the volume of this project and  the musical world of the piece.

Host of the evening, composer Dániel Dinyés, who is familiar with both  Adam Kondor and his works, helps  us to get acquainted with  this complex musical world.
