One marimba. An extraordinary artist. An extraordinary space.
Britton-René Collins is one of the most exciting emerging voices in international percussion. Combining remarkable virtuosity, musical depth and a commanding stage presence, she reveals the marimba as an instrument of extraordinary colour, resonance and expressive power.
Her programme spans works by Joseph Schwantner, Toshio Hosokawa and younger contemporary composers. Distinct musical languages come into dialogue, revealing the remarkable versatility of an instrument that reaches far beyond virtuosity alone.
The concert takes place directly in front of the altar of Hanover’s Neustädter Hof- und Stadtkirche. The unique acoustics and atmosphere of this magnificent Baroque church become an integral part of the performance.
A concert celebrating the extraordinary possibilities of the marimba.
