Steve Reich´s zeitlose, immer wieder aktuelle Komposition „Different Trains“ hat Beatriz Caravaggio in besondere bewegte Bilder (Video Art Work) eingebettet. Phantasievoll, berührend, mit starken Bildwirkungen.
Der Komponist über sein Werk: “The piece thus presents both a documentary and a musical reality and begins a new musical direction. It is a direction that I expect will lead to a new kind of documentary music video theatre in the not too distant future.”Über die Arbeit von Beatriz Caravaggio sagt Steve Reich 2017:“Since we live in a time when many people want a visual accompaniment for music – even at concerts – several people have created videos to accompany my piece Different Trains. To be honest, most of them I haven’t even seen, and those I have are generally just a distraction from listening to the music. The one exception is the brilliant multi-channel video by Beatriz Caravaggio which really works as something to watch on its own and as a way to intensify listening to Different Trains. She has taken documentary footage and through multi-channel placement and fine editing, made a thoughtful and moving piece. Bravo, Beatriz!”
