“Late Night” concert with Simon Rattle and a new masterpiece

For Simon Rattle, Georg Friedrich Haasʼ in vain is “one of the first masterpieces of the 21st century.” It is mysterious, multiperspectival music that in some way resembles the images of M. C. Escher. The effect is strengthened by the lighting directions given by the composer which create a wide variety of atmospheres. Simon Rattle performs the work with members of the Karajan Academy.
