Marco Stroppa | Part 2 – "Poésie pour pouvoir"
Description
Let's sharpen our ears for the music of the 21st century!
Marco Stroppa, who works on the cusp between instrumental and electronic music, is Lucerne Festival's composer-in-residence 2025. In Lucerne, Stroppa will present a selection of his signature works. Celebrating the 100th birthday of his former mentor Pierre Boulez, Stroppa also offers us a re-encounter with Boulez' "Poésie pour pouvoir" for which he reconstructed the electronics.
Get to know Marco Stroppa and his work in two episodes of our podcast "Deep Listening: New Music", hosted by Lucerne Festival Dramaturge Mark Sattler.
In the second episode, we learn more about Pierre Boulez' groundbreaking work "Poésie pour pouvoir" which will be revived in Lucerne with a new tape reconstruction by our composer-in-residence and Carlo Laurenzi.
