New York-based avant garde musicians perform illuminating works by five prominent composers associated with contemporary classical music in Denmark and by New York City-based composer, MV Carbon. Innovative compositional approaches and extended techniques converge in an event that incorporates spatial elements, audience engagement, and collaborative interpretation.
Artistry and sound entwine seamlessly in a formulated discourse, transcending boundaries, converging in experimental resonance, illuminating one another. This vibrant exchange bridges distances, contributing to a nuance of synthesis, vibration, and orchestrated patterns, weaving and unfurling sensations and frequency.
Organized by MV Carbon and Lars Lundehave. Sponsored by Nordic Culture Fund and presented by Roulette.
A livestream will be available free of charge at 8pm Eastern on the day of the performance and archived for future viewing.
