Berg, D :: Second Concerto
Edition Svitzer presents 'Second Concerto' for flute and percussion by Daniel Berg.
In 1939, the American Lou Harrison composed his First Concerto- a classical and fantastic work for flute and two percussion players. Influenced by this piece, Daniel Berg now wants to continue in the same atmosphere with a second concerto. The first movement is very music inspired by the grove and swinging syncopated rhythms from the concerto by Lou Harrison. In this four other movements, Berg enters a world of different techniques for the flute like air tones, tongue pizzicato, and tongue ram. For the percussion part, Berg uses traditional instruments like drums and wood blocks, but also toy electric bell, marimba, vibraphone, and a tuned bottle. The Concerto is written for two percussionists, however it's possible to be played by one player.
