​The Rite of Spring, the signature work of the Bergen International Festival, and a world premiere by Pulitzer Prize winner Caroline Shaw.

​The 70th Bergen International Festival closes according to tradition with an evening of celebration in Grieghallen with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra. Chief Conductor Edward Gardner will guide the audience through the evening.

The vocal group Roomful of Teeth opens the concert with a commissioned work by Caroline Shaw, who is a member of the ensemble. The eight Grammy-winning singers master an extraordinary breadth of vocal techniques, allowing them to create unique effects.

Vocalist/violinist/composer/producer Caroline Shaw has composed works commissioned by Anne Sofie von Otter and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra; she has composed film music and has produced for Kanye West and Nas.

Caroline Shaw's work leads up to the signature work of the festival, Grieg's Piano Concerto in A minor, with prize-winning pianist Paul Lewis as the soloist. Hailed as 'the best British pianist for several generations' he received great acclaim for his performance of the Grieg Concerto with the New York Philharmonic.

The concert concludes with one of Stravinsky's best-known works: The Rite of Spring. Its first performance in Paris in 1913 was too extreme for an unprepared audience and had a very poor reception. Today this work by one of the most influential composers of the twentieth century, though now well established in the standard repertoire, is still welcomed as fresh and innovative in a concert programme.

English

​Vårofferet, Festspillenes signaturverk og en urfremføring signert Pulitzer-vinnende Caroline Shaw.

​De 70. Festspillene i Bergen avsluttes som seg hør og bør med en festaften i Grieghallen sammen med Bergen Filharmoniske Orkester. Sjefdirigent Edward Gardner loser publikum gjennom kvelden.

Vokalgruppen Roomful of Teeth åpner konserten med et bestillingsverk av Caroline Shaw, som selv er med i ensemblet. De åtte Grammy-vinnende sangerne har en kolossal vokalteknisk spennvidde og skaper unike effekter med stemmene sine. 

Vokalist, fiolinist, komponist og produsent Caroline Shaw har skrevet bestillingsverk for blant andre Anne Sofie von Otter og LA Philharmonic, komponert filmmusikk og produsert musikk for Kanye West og Nas. 

Shaws verk leder frem til Festspillenes signaturverk, Griegs pianokonsert i a-moll, med den prisbelønte Paul Lewis som solist. Lewis er blitt kalt «den beste britiske pianisten på flere generasjoner» og har blant annet gjort stor suksess med Griegs mesterverk sammen med New York Philharmonic. 

Konserten avsluttes med et av Stravinskijs mest kjente verk: Vårofferet. Balletten ble for banebrytende for publikum og særdeles dårlig mottatt da den ble satt opp første gang i Paris i 1913. I dag er musikken, skrevet av en av de viktigste og mest innflytelsesrike komponistene i det 20. århundre, trygt etablert på repertoaret, fremdeles som et friskt og nyskapende konsertstykke.
