Event Introduction

Let the sound waves tingle, entangle and tease. Jimmy López Bellido’s piece is a journey into the mind of a synesthetician, where sound evokes a sense of colour and taste is reminiscent of a geometric shape. Clara Iannotta in turn shines the spotlight on the physicality of composing and playing. Minna Leinonen’s new composition, inspired by a piece by Kreeta Haapasalo, embodies the frenzy, power and passion of creating art. Similarly, Žibuoklė Martinaitytė brings exhilarating experiences of beauty to contemporary music.
