Event Details

Sparking visceral connections through shared experiences.

A fearless pioneer in chamber music, Syzygy Ensemble combines virtuoso talent with a bold commitment to today’s music. Lauded for their breathtaking precision and innovative repertoires, the ensemble seeks to spark visceral connections between 21st-century artists and audiences.

Their performance in Primrose Potter Salon explores the dizzying feeling of the past 18 months. Suspended in time, feeling the elation and difficulty that comes from picking up where one left off.

A meticulously crafted performance featuring world premieres from Keyna Wilkins, Zinia Chan, Anthony Moles and Cyrus Meurant that speak to the challenge of fighting, grieving and learning to live with pain. An experience that invites the listener to reflect on what has been lost, whilst vowing to move forward with renewed vitality and wisdom.
