Tangobar – TJ Michael Hayes + Orchester Ensemble Hyperion

13. September 2018 @ 20:00 - 00:30

€10

Seit 2003 veranstalten Herta und Marius Spannbauer jeden Donnerstag die Tangobar Milonga.

Heute spielt das Tangoorchester Hyperion auf.

Das Orchester wurde 1991 (!) in Turin, Italien von Carlo Emanuele Barbanente und Bruno Fiorentini gegründet.

The beginnings

Hyperion Ensemble was founded in 1991 in La Spezia (Italy) by Carlo Emanuele Barbanente (lawyer and music lover) and Bruno Fiorentini, with a 2-year grant from the Cassa di Risparmio di La Spezia Foundation. The musicians who formed the original group include Valerio Giannarelli (who later would become Hyperion Ensemble’s artistic director), Marina Artioli, Stefania Nardi, and Claudia Poz. From the beginning their aim was to explore the various expressions of modern musical sensibilities, studying the different musical styles of our age: from contemporary classical music, to chamber theatre, minimalism, modern tango, and movie soundtracks. The inauguration concert took place on 19 January 1992 in the beautiful auditorium of the Provincial Palace in La Spezia; the Ensemble was composed of 14 musicians, and performed music by Ravel, Poulenc, Faurè and Castelnuovo Tedesco, organized by Società dei Concerti of La Spezia. The second concert, held by Hyperion in the same town, La Spezia, was dedicated to music by Ligurian composers. During their first year of life the Ensemble performed 11 concerts; the last of which, on 26 December 1992 in La Spezia, was entitled Omaggio ad Astor Piazzolla, and is the first embryo of the project dedicated to Tango, which in the following years was to become a very important part of the group’s activity. In October 1992 Hyperion embarked on its first international tour to Hungary and Romania, with concerts in Debrecen (Hungary), Carei, Satu Mare and Baia Mare (Romania), performing music by Mozart, Bruch, Debussy, Ibert, Ravel.
