KULTURMITTAG (ARTS AT LUNCHTIME) WALTER AUER, JULIA AUER AND JAN THÜMER

Silver, gold and ivory meet quill, ink and paper. A performance by the flautists Julia Auer and Walter Auer (principal flautist of the Vienna Philharmonic), with recitation by Jan Thümer. The silver, gold and ivory hues of their instruments are set against colourful texts of baroque lyric poetry. Words and music here convey a sense of courtly splendour, which comes across with great clarity, vigour and vitality.
