THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS. Two fan­ta­sy worlds in dia­lo­gue with each other: Mau­rice Ravel’s fan­tastic suite “Ma Mère l’Oye”, a deli­ca­te and frail mas­ter­pie­ce of impres­sio­nism, arran­ged and re-inter­­pre­­ted by OXYMORON. And some of the duo’s own colour­ful com­po­si­ti­ons, inspi­red by Lewis Carroll’s all time clas­sic “Through the loo­king glass”.

“My links with folk music are often of an emo­tio­nal cha­rac­ter. When I work with that music I am always caught by the thrill of dis­co­very… I return again and again to folk music becau­se I try to estab­lish con­ta­ct bet­ween that and my own ide­as about music. I have a uto­pian dream, though I know it can­not be rea­li­zed: I would like to crea­te a unity bet­ween folk music and our music — a real, per­cep­ti­ble, under­stand­a­ble con­du­it bet­ween anci­ent, popu­lar music-making which is so clo­se to ever­y­day work and music.” Lucia­no Berio.
