Experience Manu Delago's 20-year anniversary with orchestral handpan music, spectacular visuals, and a best-of program – innovative, dynamic, and full of natural sounds.
Description
To mark his 20-year stage anniversary, the Manu Delago Ensemble presents a best-of program that blends orchestral soundscapes with the energy of a band. The Tyrolean handpan pioneer and composer Manu Delago – known for two Grammy nominations and collaborations with Björk, Anoushka Shankar, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra – leads his twelve-piece ensemble through 20 years of musical innovation. At the heart of the performance is the audiovisual work "ENVIRON US," an orchestral evolution of his award-winning project "ENVIRON ME." Here, natural sounds merge with complex compositions, such as when Delago plays with organ pipes while paragliding or on frozen lakes. The live version combines these experiments with striking visuals and an ensemble ranging from handpan and double bass to precise percussion rhythms.
The program spans early works to new pieces, telling the story of an extraordinary career – including the 2018 World Tour, where Delago performed with Björk, Ólafur Arnalds, and Shankar within just a few weeks. With dynamic arrangements and a passion for sustainable projects (e.g., the "ReCycling Tour" by bicycle), the ensemble always looks ahead: "ENVIRON US" is not just a retrospective but also a statement for forward-thinking music.
