Event Details
Undine – The Spirit of Water
This concert explores the idea of music as water, of sound as a fluid entity. Marc Yeats’s recent works are deliberately ‘unsynchronised’ – each part is meticulously notated but does not need to vertically align with any other part; Neils Rønsholdt plays with the fluidity of memory, and on the way a single thought can be etched into the brain and yet continually transformed; For Helena Tulve, the analogy is more literal – ‘Stream’ draws out long lines of liquid sound from each instrument, from the tiniest trickle to great gushing oceans. *in conjunction with the 2015 Metropolis Festival, including a video collaboration with visual artist Agatha Yim*
