Van der Aa TRANSIT Premiere @ Temporealefestival

On 12th October Emanuele Torquati will give the Italian premiere of TRANSIT (2009), a new piece for solo piano and film projection by Michel van der Aa, the Dutch composer and film-maker whose works such as the opera After Life incorporate both the theatrical and the cinematic. Transit brings together elements of his 2000 piano composition Just before with Passage, a short film he made at the New York Film Academy. The program, part of Temporeale Festival REWIND, includes Winter music by John Cage, performed with pianist Giancarlo Cardini.
