On the first evening they performed three stunning premieres by Ana Sokolović, Dániel Péter Biró and Philippe Leroux. On the second night they shared the bill with Yarn/Wire.

2/26/16  Talea Ensemble performed a great program of the works of Austrian composer Georg Friedrich Haas at the Bohemian National Hall including “La profondeur” (2009) for low instruments, the lyrical “tria ex uno” (2001) and the stunning “…wie stille brannte das Licht” (2009) with Tony Arnold singing soprano. The latter blew me away both in construction and performance.
