CiR Series: explorensemble ft. Oliver Christophe Leith

 

Explorensemble will perform a programme that will include works by European composers Romitelli and Stockhausen and a new commission from composer Oliver Christophe Leith.

Description

explorensemble
Taylor Maclennan (flute)
Benjamin Mellefont (clarinet)

This concert is part of the Composer-in-Residence Series

During the CiR Series an installation created by Edwin will be on display in Handel’s Bedroom. Taking as its starting point three different composers (Handel, Bach and Scarlatti), the work will explore the interaction of three distinct and ever changing strands of music. Making use of multiple sound sources, visitors can move freely around the room, continually shifting their perspective.
