The concert focuses on the wooden sounds of the violin, the viola, the cello, and the marimba, by presenting marimba as a solo instrument through important pieces of its repertoire. Specifically, the artists will perform five works, offering a variety of techniques and dialogue approaches between the marimba and the string quartet. The program also includes the work Fertility Rites by the Greek composer Christou Hatzi for solo marimba and digital sound. Inspired by the singing technique of Inuit Throat, Fertility Rites is a haunting and rather expressive work. It is considered innovative in the way that it combines live percussive music with digital sound, that is, a combination of prerecorded marimba and Inuit Throat sounds.
