Michael Sell (1942) is a composer and creator of unique musical styles. Born in Königstein (Taunus) as the child of musicians, he initially studied political science and natural sciences, but soon switched to music. As a trumpeter, he is a herald of free jazz, before shifting his focus to compositional works from 1978 onwards: the composer, a member of the Darmstadt Secession, is in his 40th professional anniversary year.
This fall, there is the composition "Großer Attraktor" complete with the concertante scenes I,II,III,IV for soprano, mezzo-soprano, countertenor, baritone and large orchestra (premiere) by Michael Sell and the concertante interpretation of "La Bourse" by G.P. Telemann from 1720 from the Liebfrauenberg in Frankfurt am Main, version for trumpet, viola, percussion and large orchestra op 12794.
"La Bourse" refers to Telemann's setting of the stock exchange crash 295 years ago. It will be performed this time in a version for trumpet, viola, percussion and large orchestra.
In this year's concert cycle, the contemporary modern composer will present a world premiere and works from previous years that will again provide surprising listening experiences.
