Under the direction of composer Rafael Marino Arcaro, soprano Hannah Dienes-Williams and Ensemble Utak bring to Germany a rare concert consisting entirely of premieres, spanning a century of Latin American music written between 1927 and 2026. Works from Brazil, Chile, Peru, Cuba and Mexico connect early modernism with contemporary voices in a cross-generational cultural encounter. At the centre stands the world premiere of 'what i learned from manoel de barros: / o que aprendi com manoel de barros:’, Marino Arcaro’s setting of Manoel de Barros’ 1998 poetry collection, transforming the poet’s language of fragility into a daringvocal landscape evoking the quieter rural regions of Brazil.
