about libertas:
Libertas is the first show organised by new composers collective Granular Synthesis and features a focus on improvisation and spur of the moment creations. For the inaugural show the group decided to compose a program of all new works that crosses the boundaries of electronic music, classical composition and modern rock experimentalism.
Works displayed in this concert include the Agoraphobia set in which each composer has contributed a section, audio/visual live scoring and multiple pieces for instruments manipulated by electronics. This concert features only works of short duration in an attempt to cover as much ground as possible and to smoothly combine an eclectic multitude of music and sound art.
Libertas is a concert that focuses on the nexus between composition and improvisation. Each member of Granular Synthesis has approached this concept in a creative and unique way, bringing you an exciting program of works that vary from structured compositions, electro-acoustic experimentation and band based improvisation.
