Project Spiritual choral music of the XV-XXI centuries "Point of intersection" Automatic translate

On December 2, at 20. 00, the Art ParkING Center for Contemporary Technologies in Art will present a concert of choral music of the 15th – 21st centuries, “Intersection Point”, in the hall of the Lendok Open Film Studio.

The main goal of the “Intersection Point” project is to introduce a wide circle of young people to the evolution of the concept of “spirituality” in various cultures through choral music: from composers of the Middle Ages and Renaissance to contemporary foreign and Russian authors. The “intersection point" is a metaphor for today - a meeting place and interaction of a huge field of traditions and views of the past with a modern understanding of beauty. All this together creates the cultural code of modern man. The program includes compositions by Ilya Demutsky, Kleman Zhaneken, Elina Lebedze, Paul Hindemith, Mark Prigogo, Ivan Alexandrov, Carlo Gesualdo di Venoz, Ivan Abramov, Nastasya Khrushcheva, Arthur Zobnin. All compositions of the program are unique in complexity and beauty samples of art of their time, rarely performed in Russia.

The concert participants are the laureate of international competitions the Festino Youth Chamber Choir, students and graduates of the orchestra faculty of the St. Petersburg State Conservatory, conductor - laureate of international competitions Alexander Makarov.
