Event information

International Brucknerfest Linz 2025. Film? The Atalante Quartet explores film music (with and without film) from five different perspectives.

Who needs the film when you have the music? The Atalante Quartet poses this question, taking five different perspectives.

At the centre of the programme is Bernard Herrmann, who made history with his music for films such as Citizen Kane or Taxi Driver, but above all for those by Alfred Hitchcock. In addition to his iconic score for Hitchcock's Psycho the rarely heard string quartet Echoes is also a decidedly 'absolute music' work. The string quartet "Mishima" by Philip Glass also falls between the stools: a piece for the concert hall, for which the composer drew on his music for the film of the same name, a mirror image of Samuel Barber's Adagio, which first became world-famous through its use in countless films.

The Upper Austrian composer Helmut Schmidinger sheds light on the subject from yet another perspective by performing the feat of writing 'film music without film' in his new work.
