Sondheim Center for the Performing Arts
Fairfield, Iowa March 28, 2019:

Werner Elmker gave a piano performance of J. S. Bach: Arioso from Cantata BWV 156.

This piece was also made into a song by Caetano Veloso and Flávio Venturini called Ceu de Santo Amaro.

In performance of classical as well as original music, Danish concert pianist and composer Werner Elmker emphasizes the importance of improvisation as the main source of all great music. Improvised music is 'fresh' music created in the moment, and often gives a stronger experience than music notated on paper. Most of the great composers used improvisation during recitals and composing. Like the classical masters, Dr. Elmker improvises in his own tonal language which finds its origin in previous styles of classical music. He utilizes free improvisation, improvisation on original melodies, classical themes, folksongs, and film music. Through performances, CDs, radio programs and education, he seeks to reinvigorate the lost art of classical improvisation.
