About this Event
"Totally magical evening, a truly immersive experience. Being close to the performers and instruments allowed me to appreciate the skill and musicianship"—Future Yard audience member
Enter a realm flooded with light and sound.
The Alaskan wilderness and the Arctic sky is where night and day steadily unfold with a special kind of magic. These horizons stretch far and wide across the nature-infused music of John Luther Adams. His ‘Canticles of the Sky’ for string quartet is stark, bright and expansive. It takes inspiration from sunbeams that hit ice crystals and refract, forming vivid halos and sundogs. To hear it live is to feel the steady, creeping warmth of a frosty day…
On our way to these distant soundscapes, we bask in the radiant purity of Arvo Pärt’s ‘Summa’ and briefly leave Earth behind for alien terrains. Experimental British musician and composer Mica Levi is best known for their scores for films like Under the Skin and The Zone of Interest.
In a new commission for the Collective, Jasmine Morris manipulates time with her slow-crawling textures and otherworldly sounds.
