ZAPPANALE REVISITED - ENSEMBLE AMBROSIUS AT THE MAIN STAGE

I still have this pile of great stuff lying on my desk... All part of the Zappanale Journal.
So next up is the concert that the Ensemble Modern did at Zappanale.
Main Stage, 2010/08/13.

• ensemble ambrosius: zappanale 21
  (2010, dvdr, ger, private release)

Having seen the ensemble three days before in Hamburg, was an excellent start of the festival.
So when they played again at the main stage at the festival grounds, I knew I had to be there.

Great tunes (a nice and dared mixture of contemporary pieces), great performances (the mix was really good as well), and a bunch of nice people (Luuk and I had a nice chat with them the day before).
It was a blast.

I'm glad that this concert got recorded. It was made available at the festival in a very limited quantity.
