Debutkoncert Michael Hope
Komponisten og performeren Michael Hope stiller i aftenens komposition ‘(I Love You) For Instrumental Reasons’ spørgsmål ved hvad vi værdsætter i samtidsmusik, og med denne koncert giver han sit bud på alternativer.
Michael Hope udtaler om koncerten:
'The concert explores various questions confronting composers and musicians today; how is it that new music currently maintains such an acute and persistent shortage of creative geniuses? Is it time that composers took a break from engaging in large-scale artistic projects with radical concepts, denouncing society and its institutions, and instead entertained a gentler, more humble focus on self-expression, craft, and the transcendent potential of art? And how does the role of the artist function within a culture and continent increasingly characterised by moribundity and irrelevance?'
Medvirkende: Michael Hope, Mikkel Schou, Dylan Richards, Matthew Grouse, Joss Smith, Gustav Bjerre m.fl.
