Concert performance | Stephen Katz
The american Cellist Stephen Katz is widely known for his self-developed technique Flying pizzicato. At the ESSZIMMER he presents his solo program with theatrical elements.
The American cellist Stephen Katz (New York) has added an impressive color to the expressive repertoire of the cello with his self-developed playing technique.
In June/July 2015 he is on tour in Germany with the Gunther Tiedemann – David Plate Duo and as a guest of the String Big Band of the Cologne University of Music and Dance.
At DAS ESSZIMMER he presents his solo program with theater elements – Angels in the Engine Room:
When Stephen Katz’s concert of Bach Suites is commandeered by the force of his inner voices, he is compelled to reveal what’s troubling him: how to let the spirit of Bach speak directly through his cello, and how to explain why his unorthodox physical practice with a juggling ball has made its way into the concert program! What is his Muse up to? Why interrupt the greatness of Bach’s music with the “engine room” grit and grime of life’s practice, discipline, and laundry? What do the transcendent and the day-to-day have to do with one another? With this performance, Stephen brings to the stage a life-long
exploration of the links between music, mastery, and his quest to be of service for the Good Of All.
“I hold one piece of a puzzle,” says Katz, “and together with the audience, I’m finding its place in the Big Picture.”
