Can you make music with nothing more than a bottle, a glass and some water? What does water sound like? What does its splashing remind us of? What do we dream of when we see a ship disappearing on the horizon? Tailoring their work for the Forward Festival, musicians from the Lucerne Festival Contemporary Orchestra (LFCO) are collaborating with Lucerne school classes to develop a sonic expedition that traces the music of water. Divided into three groups, the audience will travel from the shores of Lake Lucerne, where pebbles move with the waves, making clicking and clacking sounds, to the KKL Luzern, where the vibrating strings of bowed instruments create sound waves. The motto: if everyone provides a drop of music, the result will be the symphony of an entire ocean.
