 About the concert

The concert programme is compiled as an exploration of aesthetic directions in acousmatic music which emphasise texture and spatiality, including new works from City University composers as well as international repertoire. Although each work has an individual style and was composed with different motivations, they all offer experiences where perceived space acquires textural qualities. Immersive and evocative, molecular masses, gaseous clouds, turbulent flow, or projecting radiations emerge within a sonic 'fabric'. The acousmatic experience of near, far, above and below reaches beyond empirical physicality, as we orbit through the microcosms and immense voids of a perceptual universe, which is just as real, infinite and expanding as the physical.
