Luka Juhart

May 10th, Saturday

19h – Luka Juhart (programme: Globokar, Juhart, Demetz, Fuentes, Šaljić Podešva) @ &TD semicircular (60′)

Accordionist Luka Juhart (1982) studied at the Trossingen Music Academy and the Würzburg University of Music in Germany (Hugo Noth and Stefan Hussong). He regularly records for various radio stations and performs across Europe. He has appeared with ensembles such as Camerata Zuerich, Windkraft Ensemble, Avanture Ensemble, Slovenian Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra etc. Juhart attaches great importance to working with contemporary composers. He collaborates with many composers (Rojko, Globokar, Larcher, Huber, Demetz, Mahnkopf).

Program:

Luka Juhart: hrUP (2013.), za Vinka

Bojana Šaljić Podešva: Abstinenca 3 (2014.) *praizvedba

Arturo Fuentes: Getmove (2011., obr. 2014.) *praizvedba

Eduard Demetz: 4 Tracks (2013.) *praizvedba

Vinko Globokar: Dialog o zraku (1994.)

The basic mean of expression in the work of composer Bojana Šaljić Podešva (1978) is electroacoustic music, regarding fixed-recorded 2- or more channel compositions, as well as real-time treatment of instrumental or vocal sound and music installation. Another important domain of her work represents music in relation to contemporary visual and performing.

Arturo Fuentes (Mexico, 1975) arrived in Europe in 1997; his musical path led him from Milan, Paris and Vienna to his current home in Innsbruck. He has studied with Franco Donatoni in Milan and Horacio Vaggione in Paris. He composes instrumental and electronic music, and conceives new musical theater projects that combine dance, video and electronics.

The feature of Getmove is quickness. I am interested in creating a shifting texture containing several sound dimensions: we hear the noise of the keys that are mixed with the air and the real sound. I am also interested in the accordion dark color projection in the lower register; for me, it is like a line of sonic color that takes off upward. Regularity and irregularity, density and lightness, are at the center of this piece. (Arturo Fuentes)

Eduard Demetz studied piano and orchestra-conducting at the Mozarteum. He has also worked on several movie, theatre and tv productions. His pieces have been performed by acclaimed ensmbles and orchestras. He is Artistic Director of the “valgardenamusica“ festival and vice president of the “Transart“ festival of contemporary culture.

The 4 Tracks are dedicated to Luka Juhart whose quest for the instrumental perfection, refined feeling for the sound, as well as his openness to experimentation have inspired me for composing these four tracks. Tracks is a piece characterized by fragmentation, living out of the player’s desire to „grab the keys“. Music is created in real time through electronic manipulation of the fragments of the accordion part.
