Rein Rannapi autorikontsert kammermuusikast

25. november 2023, EMTA suur saal

Korraldaja: Eesti Interpreetide Liit


Uue albumi esitluskontsert

laupäeval, 28.-l oktoobril, kell 19.00,

Tallinna Kinomajas (Uus tn 3)

Ilmus Rein Rannapi plaat Ajasõlmed / Time Knots, mis on salvestatud 10-l erineval klahvpillil 10-s erinevas kohas. Album on saadaval nii CD kui LP kujul.

Esitluskontserdil musitseerib Rannap viiel naturaalsel ja ühel elektrilisel klahvpillil.

Pillid esitluskontserdi laval on: klaver, ettevalmistatud ehk prepareeritud klaver, tšelesta, klavessiin, harmoonium ja süntesaator. Prepareeritud klaveri sisemus – kõik, mis on keelte vahele pandud ja mis seal toimub, on kenasti jälgitav ekraanilt.

Kuivõrd isegi Rannapil jätkub käsi korraga vaid ühe-kahe pilli jaoks, siis juba mängitud helide taasesitamisel on abiks luuper ja arvuti. Need luubid (inglise keeles „loop” – aas või silmus) ehk korduvad motiivid ongi kui ajakangasse kootud sõlmed. Sellest ka plaadi pealkiri – „Ajasõlmed“.

Enamiku plaadi lugudest kirjutas Rannap eelmise aasta suvetuuriks „Klaver tuleb külla 25“. Nüüdseks on neid edasi arendatud ja lisatud uusi pille ning helikihte.

Esitluskontserdil saab osta albumit nii CD kui vinüüli kujul, samuti Rannapi varasemaid plaate, ning loomulikult võtta neile pärast kontserti kunstnikult autogrammi.

Kava:

„Mari oli mammu“ segakoorile ja keelpilliorkestrile (2016/2018), tekst: eesti rahvaluule

„Concerto grosso in un movimento“ (1981/2023)
„Cantus Borealis“ solistile, segakoorile ja orkestrile (2023, esiettekanne)

Rein Rannapi autorikontserdid on omamoodi jätkuks viis aastat tagasi toimunud ülimenukale kontserdile „50 aastat suurel laval“. Kui toona kõlasid põhiliselt Rannapi tuntumad poplood armastatud lauljate ettekandes, siis seekord on esinejateks klassikalise tagapõhjaga parimad muusikud. Laval on Ellerhein ja Eesti Rahvusmeeskoor, orkester, hulk löök- ja klahvpille – kokku üle saja muusiku, keda kõiki hoiab koos erakordne dirigent Kristjan Järvi. Loomulikult on oma muusikat esitamas ka Rein Rannap ise. Kogu kontsert on rannaplikult mitmekesine ja põhjalikult planeeritud. Kava haripunktiks on kahtlemata uue pikema teose „Cantus Borealis” esiettekanne, mille kõrval kõlavad mitmed Rannapi varasemad teosed koorile ja orkestrile.

Kaunid laulud – “Nii vaikseks kõik on jäänud”, “Raagus sõnad”, “Vana vaksal”, “Rahu”, “Eesti muld ja Eesti süda”, “Keegi tulla võib” jt. tulevad esitusele ka Sõru Jazzil, seekord taas värskekõlalistena, sest lisaks pianisti uutele seadetele on kaasatud ka vilunud jazzmuusikud – Paul Daniel kitarridel, Martin-Eero Kõressaar kontrabassil ning Reigo Ahven trummidel. Lisades siia Maarja vankumatu stoilisuse ning Rannapi tundelise pöörasuse, tõotab see kontsert lisaks tuttavlikkusele läbi laulude, ka erinevate värvikate isiksuste koosmängu.

Maarja – vokaal
