About event
Claude Debussy's Preludes and Images are atmospheric, colorful pieces, impressionist paintings cast in musical form. The Berlage Saxophone Quartet and the Dudok Quartet Amsterdam, two of the best and most versatile quarttets in the Netherlands, shed new light on these two piano classics.
Composer and master arranger Max Knigge arranged a number of parts for the four saxophonists and the four string players and wrote the brand new Interludes. Debussy's timbres are given a modern counterpart thanks to the laser light animations by the Dutch-Russian artist Vladimir Grafov, which were also shown during large-scale outdoor events such as the Amsterdam Dance Event. This transforms the concert hall into an oasis of sound, color, movement and light.
