Lucerne Festival Contemporary Orchestra

The Lucerne Festival Contemporary Orchestra and its new musical director Jörg Widmann bring an intensely impactful work to the Musikfest Berlin: Tutuguri by Wolfgang Rihm. The poème dansé activates a powerful battery of percussion and translates the “fevered pulse” of the eponymous poem by Antonin Artaud – which was inspired by the ritual Tutugúri dances of the indigenous people of northern Mexico, into captivating music.
