Vrije Geluiden
VPRO Television aired a one hour documentary about the work of Michel van der Aa.
The program includes excerpts of Memo, Here [in circles], One and Passage in performances by Maaike Aarts, the ASKO Ensemble and Barbara Hannigan. There is a streaming video of the documentary on the Vrije Geluiden website.
Michel van der Aa (Netherlands, 1970) is one of Europe’s most sought-after composers today. For Van der Aa, music is more than organized sound or a structuring of notes. His music has expressive power, combining sounds and scenic images in a play of changing perspectives. Van der Aa’s recent stage works show a successful involvement as a film and stage director as well as composer.
