As a musician's instrumental proficiency develops, so does their artistic taste and temperament. Throughout 2024, ANAM musicians curate and present Soundbites – concerts that are a snapshot in time, summarising their year of training and revealing glimipses of their future selves. What music excites them? What do they want to communicate? How does their art help them understand the world better? Experience the unique and intimate points of view of ANAM musicians throughout this series.
Bach’s Little Organ Book BWV 599−644 offers a window into his genius, where intricate technique and profound emotion meet in a series of masterful improvisations. Each piece radiates a richness of invention and symbolism, showcasing Bach's unparalleled ability to weave complex ideas into beautiful music.
In contrast, Persichetti’s The Hollow Men, inspired by T.S. Eliot's poignant poem, captures the depths of human despair and longing through haunting melodies and rich harmonies. This programme beautifully juxtaposes the intellectual brilliance of Bach with the emotional intensity of Persichetti, offering a deeply moving experience brought to life by the talented ANAM musicians.
