CiR Series: The Hermes Experiment ft. Elis Czerniak

The Hermes Experiment will perform works from Handel’s time to the present day, including a new work by Dublin-based composer, Elis Czerniak.
Description
The Hermes Experiment
Heloise Werner (soprano)
Oliver Pashley (clarinet)
Anne Denholm (harp)
Marianne Schofield (double bass)
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.
