Musical Annual Calendar: Pre-Concert for Isabelle Faust, Tabea Zimmermann & Jean-Guihen Queyras

The duo Haïkaï – Lorenzo Manquillet and Ivan Oesinger – presents a concert featuring works from four different eras, performed on marimba and vibraphone. The program ranges from Baroque elegance with Jean-Philippe Rameau’s "Gavotte et six doubles" and Johann Sebastian Bach’s virtuosic "Italian Concerto" to contemporary sounds like Anders Koppel’s "Toccata" and Philip Glass’s minimalist "Étude No. 6". The unusual instrumentation lends the pieces a distinctive timbre.

As a pre-concert event for the Musical Year Calendar, the concert sets the stage for the subsequent evening program featuring Isabelle Faust, Tabea Zimmermann, and Jean-Guihen Queyras. Admission is free and offers an opportunity to experience young musicians from the Anton Bruckner Private University.
