AGON supported by “SIAE - Classici di Oggi” project:
In 1981, the World Chess Championships were held in Merano. Against the background of the Cold War, Anatoli Karpov and Viktor Kortschnoi were sitting opposite each other.
This legendary game of chess forms the basis of the musical piece in two scenes by the collective Agon: intelligence and strategic thinking determine the game, the excitement is almost tangible. The music begins; instruments, amplifier; the tension rises until it mounts in a thrilling duel between drums and piano.
