Presented by popular demand following Teng Li's previous appearance with Esprit Orchestra, the concert features a repeat performance of Alfred Schnittke's Viola Concerto. Also on the programme, R. Murray Schafer's No Longer Than 10 Minutes, Claude Vivier's Zipangu and Samy Moussa's Gegenschein and Zodiakallicht. Schafer's work is a tribute to the composer in his 80th birthday year. Vivier has become a major figure and an international sensation in new music and his works continue to stimulate interest in Esprit audiences.
