Dianto Reed Quintet | Identidades: La magia del Duende
Voertaal programma: Engels / Spaans
Duende is a concept that cannot be really defined. It is not something tangible or meant to be put in words, but something you can find and experience. It is commonly associated to Spanish art, and it tries to reflect the magic that naturally emerges during a performance. Duende is a concept that goes beyond reason, which appeals directly to the emotions that the artist recalls in the audience while performing.
Identidades’ main aim is to bring the Duende to each show. The music goes from the Spanish Renaissance to the Nationalism of the 20th Century, presenting not only the most popular folklore from this country, but also interesting Spanish music not that often performed in The Netherlands.
Identidades is not only a musical program, but a performance in the full sense of the word. It is presented combining music with a concrete scenography, and also fragments of a conference given by Federico García Lorca in 1933 called ‘Juego y Teoría del Duende’, in which he developed his own perception of Duende.
It can be said that Identidades is successful if, and only if, the musicians and the audience can feel the
presence of the Duende accompanying them during the show.

About Dianto Reed Quintet
Dianto Reed Quintet is a chamber music group formed by five Spanish young musicians based in Amsterdam. After studying in different Spanish Conservatories, Dianto Reed Quintet-members took part in several young national and international orchestras, such as the Youth Orchestra of Spain, Nationaal Jeugd Orkest, European Union Youth Orchestra or Jong Nederlands Blazers Ensemble, among others. They finished their master studies in the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.
Dianto Reed Quintet offers a different approach to the traditional chamber music concert. Their performances stand out due to the fusion of a very strong energy and contrasting elements. This is reached by combining and changing the order of the different movements of the pieces in order to surprise the audience and including some choreography, which helps to create a deeper interaction between the listeners and the musicians.
