Conductor:

  • Lincoln Center, august 2010
    The performances of Ligeti’s “Lux Aeterna” and Xenakis’s “Nuits” were no less accomplished. These are treacherous a cappella tours de force that you never want to hear an inferior chorus attempt.

    Ars Nova Copenhagen gave tip-top performances for the aforementioned Xenakis and Ligeti. The women especially had ripe open voices, the conducting under Paul Hillier was absolutely meticulous.

    The score of Lux aeterna reveals a careful scientific exercise in polyphonic relationships, but in this performance it was something entirely extraordinary.
