Forward 2023 | Sofia Jernberg talks about the concert "Video/Opera"

Let's sharpen our ears for the music of the 21st century!
Every year in November, Lucerne Festival Forward offers
contemporary music a platform and gives a voice to the musicians
of the younger generation. In the podcast "Deep Listening",
dramaturge Mark Sattler introduces us to the four programs of the
Forward Festival in short conversations with the involved
artists.

We talk to Swedish singer Sofia Jernberg who will perform at the
Opening Concert of the third edition of Lucerne Festival Forward.
In Switzerland's biggest movie space – the filmtheatre of the
Swiss Museum of Transport – she will explore both intimate and
overwhelmingly synesthetic music making: After singing Julius
Eastman's harrowing solo piece "Prelude to The Holy Presence of
Joan d'Arc", Sofia teams up with the Ensemble of the Lucerne
Festival Contemporary Orchestra and conductor Johanna Malangré
for Fausto Romitelli's monumental video opera "An Index of
Metals".

Hear Sofia Jernberg live at the Opening Concert of Lucerne
Festival Forward on 17 November at the Filmtheatre of the Swiss
Museum of Transport
