About the Concert
Revolutionary music to expand your consciousness – turn on, tune in and prepare to be amazed
The world of classical music is populated by revolutionaries, innovators and visionaries; artists who challenge not only the way we perceive sound but who unexpectedly reveal astonishing new aspects of the human experience. They expand our consciousness by drawing back the curtain even further than we thought possible. Regarded with suspicion in their own times, these composers were often vilified, certainly misunderstood and in some cases considered to be insane. It is only by taking a step back that we can truly appreciate their exceptional creativity. The composers presented here were, without doubt, renegades, pioneers in sound and explorers of the undiscovered corners of the human psyche.
