Our whole life revolves around time, but how much time do we spend on what we really love? In Time is how you spend your love, DOMNIQ - Dominique Vleeshouwers, the first percussionist to win the Dutch Music Prize - composer Samuel Adams and the Marmen Quartet show how time and space affect our passions. The program covers a wide range of works, ranging from existing core repertoire for string quartet and for percussion solo to various combinations.
Adams’ composition Sundial forms the basis of Time is how you spend your love and paints an enchanting dreamscape, enhanced by a dynamic lighting design and the strategic placement of sound in space. And when Beethoven repeats the same motif 48 times in the Scherzo of his Sixteenth String Quartet, it becomes clear that for him, too, playing with time held no secrets.
*Co-commission with Tromp Percussion Eindhoven
