Martin Grubinger Jr. also looks forward to his third SHMF concert in the sold-out Hbadelburg barn
"I find it incredibly nice," said a listener in the hallway in the break, out of the concert barn, whose thatched roof unfortunately did not block the heat of the day, but on the contrary saved that night. Not only the 400 listeners suffer from the heat, but also the four musicians on the stage.
First and foremost the undeniably likeable Martin Grubinger, percussionist of the world's first guard, endowed with virtuosity, supported by a father. exactly the same "craft" – and also endowed with enthusiasm and charm that immediately aroused the sympathy of the public.
The 35-year-old Austrian gave this year three concerts at the Schleswig-Holstein Festival on Thursday Hbadelburg, and the program is a single potpourri of percussion. This is the show of a musician who can produce sound in all materials, in all vessels, whether it is voluminous sounds of marimba, drone beats on timpani or a metallic click on the bottom of the pot or even the lid of the bin
Percussive in berserker and the next moment with the greatest sensitivity, it creates fast rhythms and changes with incredible ease the rhythm and the bars. He can mimic the entire rhythm section of a samba chapel, including the typical whistle, but he can also utter a plaintive sound on his coat.
Martin Grubinger Jr. is almost always the center of attention tonight Per Rundberg (piano) and the two percussionists Slavik Stakhov and Rainer Furthner are perfect partners
The works of this musical program. a duration of about 90 minutes are as wide as the objects used to produce sounds and bars: From his father Martin Grubinger senior played the Salzburg native the play "From the life of a drum" with The audible arc of childhood through the teens and the mid-life crisis to old age and death. A toccata for vibraphone, marimba and piano, composed by the Danish Anders Koppel, has become a lively conversation between three instruments, operated by two musicians. John Psata's "One Study One Summary for Marimba with Junk Percussion and Digital Audio" made it possible to make an excursion into the avant-garde under the undoubtedly exciting use of electronic sound production. The motto of diversification continues in a sequel that is the second part of the program after the break: an exciting sequence of very diverse pieces, blues and jazz underneath, but also atonal and unbalanced tonal lines that in an energetic staccato . pour the barn.
There was something for every listener in this program. Probably many have hoped for one or the other over. But the disappointment about this, given the virtuosity and pbadion of the musician, could be limited, as have shown the warm applause.
