Arrangements for Venetian Gran-Caffè-Orchestra
with a reading of Wagner’s Venice letters

Wagner and Venice, a secret affair in six episodes that was ended by his »glorifying«death. A well-known story that has also been a source of inspirationfor the second classical experiment of New York Jazz musician UriCaine. He performed this arrangement for the first time at the GranCaffè Quadri on St Mark’s Square in 1997. The critically acclaimedrecording followed soon. Since then Uri Caine has grappled with thedeconstruction of works by Bach, Schumann, Beethoven and most recentlyhe did his award-winning recording »Uri Caine Ensemble plays Mozart«.He keeps crossing the borders between classical music, jazz, blues andklezmer. The fact that he was the artistic director of Biennale Musicain Venice in 2003 when he realized the first performance of his »The Othello Syndrome«, proves that he is both a versatile and an outstanding artist.
