In C: In Splendor
A playful version of Terry Riley's minimal music masterpiece
Especially for tonight, Splendor musicians Miro Petkov, Peter Prommel and Nora Fischer join forces for their very own interpretation of Terry Riley's iconic minimal music piece In C, in which Riley's hypnotic world will be alternated with their own spontaneous improvisations, short spoken texts and stories, and playful interludes.
Join us and immerse yourself in this revolutionary work – a cornerstone of minimal music – and step into a world where sound becomes movement, and rhythm becomes energy. Terry Riley's groundbreaking masterpiece In C invites you to do more than just listen — it beckons you to feel, dream, and flow with the music itself. Rhythmic and melodic patterns evoke the timeless simplicity of Satie, the bold experimental spirit of Cage, and the rich traditions of Asian and folk music, all fused with the electrifying energy of rock and jazz.
