Agenda

Graduation concert Riccardo Fortunato, Master The Sound of Innovation: Demut

Saturday, June 11, 2022 | 11.00 am | Enschede

Riccardo Fortunato is a young modern music composer. He will soon graduate from the Master The Sound of Innovation at the ArtEZ Academy of Music in Enschede. Musical concepts around themes such as "time", "silence", "eternity" and a respectful attitude against the sacred in the arts are a constant focus in his musical works. His latest work, "Demut," was written based on these themes and inspired by Eastern Orthodox traditions and spirituality. It was written for string quartet, mixed choir and carillon and will be premiered on June 11, 2022 in the Grote Kerk Enschede as part of his final exam.
