The young cellist Lionel Martin is a guest at KLANGRAUM st.fidelis with the EOS Ensemble and their program "Shining Icons" - music of great steel power!

John Tavener describes his concerto for cello and string orchestra "The Protecting Veil" as a "sounding icon". Music of great radiance that cleverly balances the space between sound and silence and exerts a fascinating pull on the listener. In this deeply spiritual work, Tavener brings to life the life and work of Mary, her cosmic beauty and the stages from her birth to her ascension.
For Lionel Martin, "The Protecting Veil" is a work close to his heart. As an 18-year-old, he recorded it on CD with the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra at SWR. He has founded a new orchestra especially for this concert - with young, highly talented musicians who are just as passionate about this music as he is.

The concert takes place in cooperation with Lionel Martin.
Supported by the Cultural Office of the City of Stuttgart.
