# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Chamayou leikur Ravel
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 10 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm (+00:00)
- **Event Description**: Nýr staðarlistamaður Sinfóníuhljómsveitar Íslands, píanóleikarinn Bertrand Chamayou og sópransöngkonan og hljómsveitarstjórinn, Barbara Hannigan, verða í brennidepli á þessum fjölbreyttu tónleikum sem óneitanlega hafa sterkt franskt yfirbragð. Chamayou leikur tvö tónverk eftir samlanda sína frá Frakklandi sem eiga það sameiginlegt að búa yfir einstökum litbrigðum. Söngur framandi fugla Ameríku og Asíu varð Olivier Messiaen að innblæstri í litskrúðugu verki fyrir píanó, blásara og slagverk á meðan Ravel hugsaði fyrst og fremst um að skrifa léttan og skemmtilegan píanókonsert þar sem einleikarinn fengi að glansa. Tónskáldið sótti þar innblástur í þjóðtónlist forfeðra sinna í Baskalandi og töfrar fram tápmikil stef og einn fegursta hæga þátt píanóbókmenntanna. Ljóð Arthurs Rimbaud voru kveikjan að tónverki Benjamins Britten, Les Illuminations. Þau boða okkur að stórborgin sé að minnsta kosti jafn villt og frumskógurinn! Öldur sem brotna við ströndina, fjörugar skrúðgöngur og töfrandi ljós sem lýsa dansandi elskendum í kvöldhúminu. Barbara Hannigan og strengjasveit Sinfóníuhljómsveitar Íslands flytja okkur þetta kraftmikla meistaraverk.

The Iceland Symphony Orchestra's new artist in residence, pianist Bertrand Chamayou, and conductor and soprano Barbara Hannigan, will be the focus of this diverse concert that has an undeniable strong French air. Chamayou will play two compositions by his compatriots from France that both possess unique nuances. The songs of exotic birds from America and Asia inspired Olivier Messiaen to compose a colourful work for piano, wind instruments, and percussion, while Ravel's primary concern was to write a light and enjoyable piano concerto in which the soloist could shine. The composer drew inspiration from the folk music of his ancestors in the Basque Country and conjures up lively motifs and one of the most beautiful slow movements in piano literature. Arthur Rimbaud's poems were the inspiration for Benjamin Britten's composition, Les Illuminations. They tell us that the big city is at least as wild as the jungle! Waves breaking on the shore, lively parades, and magical lights illuminating dancing lovers in the evening twilight. Barbara Hannigan and the Iceland Symphony Orchestra's string ensemble perform this powerful masterpiece.
