Marvento Duo vs. Isaac Newton

Category: Concert Programs

When Elizabeth and Weronika rehearse as a duo, they often end up mimicking the swing of a pendulum to find the right flow in the music. This workshop explores why the properties of a swinging pendulum matter so much in governing musical tempo and energy, and helps the audience connect more deeply with the music of French composer Claude Debussy. Through games that connect musical sounds with our daily experiences of pendulums, explore new ways of listening to music –  the third movement of Debussy’s Sonata for Violin and Piano, transcribed for flute and piano by Marvento Duo.
