Matinée des Jeunes Etoiles III - Metamorphosis

Anyone who still thinks that the recorder is only there to annoy parents with their children's first attempts at music should definitely make their way to the Gstaad chapel or the Abländschen church on Saturday, August 2! There, the exceptional young Dutch artist Lucie Horsch will show just how versatile and fascinating this instrument really can be. Her program takes the audience on a journey from the Flemish Renaissance through bold contemporary sounds to the masterful Partita by Johann Sebastian Bach and Claude Debussy's legendary Syrinx. A program full of surprises and musical magic!
