Trio Tenso

Trio Tenso is a recorder trio that occupies itself with music from the Renaissance, the Baroque era and music from the 21st century. It consists of Katrin Felbermair, Leona Lenger and Johanna Unterpertinger who began studying together at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz in 2019 - first with Robert Finster, after his retirement in 2021 with Lea Sobbe. Their main goal lies in showcasing the variety of the recorder instruments and their repertoire of the last centuries.

Trio Tenso has received further impulses by Tabea Schwartz, Lydia Graber, Christine Gnigler, Amy Power and others. From the beginning of their studies, the three played together in different ensemble constellations. Since 2022, they are working together intensely as a trio. They performed at different events of the Institute as well as at the Festival for Early Music Summa Sonorum (4x4, summer 2022; Gezwitscher, summer 2023) or at concerts they organized themselves (musica variopinta, Graz/St.Peter, Graz/Waltendorf; Ehrenhausen; summer/autumn 2022; Gezwitscher, Brunico/Südtirol). They were also part of the church concert Die Sinfonie Gottes hören on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Maria Luggau monastery garden in the Lesach Valley, Carinthia.

Repertoire

musica variopinta

This programme was compiled to showcase the variety of the recorder repertoire. It consists of music from different time periods, mainly the Renaissance, French Baroque and contemporary music. During the working process, each piece was assigned a specific color, which, if possible, should be showcased during the performance. Together with the music, the background of the pieces will be explained.

Gezwitscher

"I sing as the bird sings, Who dwells in the branches; The song that comes from the throat, Is reward that is richly rewarding. [...]" - J. W. von Goethe (freely translated)

In this concept no birds sing, but recorders sound. Like many instruments, the recorder is associated with certain images - mostly pastoral nature scenes with birdsong in the background. Gezwitscher - Die Musik der Vögel (Chirping - The Music of Birds) puts this birdsong into the centre of attention and faces their singing in different time periods and countries.
