Sir Harrison Birtwistle in conversation, interspersed by The Message for trumpet, clarinet and side drum and two new additions to his duet series (world premieres)
In Broken Images*
Theseus Game*

Few other composers have played such an integral role in the London Sinfonietta’s growth as Sir Harrison Birtwistle, whose music has always remained defiantly uncategorisable. Once considered the bad boy of British music, Birtwistle’s extraordinary output has transformed him into a contemporary icon. Now in his 80th year, this is a chance to get under the skin of one of music’s most challenging minds as we relive his 21st century commissions and premiere new additions to his series of duets. Join us for the celebration.

Artemis Quartet

The Berlin-based Artemis Quartet, founded 25 years ago at the Musikhochschule in Lübeck, stands today among the world’s leading chamber ensembles.

Its commitment to new music is boldly stated with Pēteris Vask’s Fifth String Quartet, a two-movement exploration of the conscious states of presence and distance influenced by the Latvian composer’s compassion for ‘a world tortured by grief and contradictions’.

London Sinfonietta

The BFI’s major season, Sci-Fi: Days of Fear and Wonder, plays host to a meeting of music and film. Five solo voyages have been specially written by emerging composers for double bass, cello, tuba, viola and flute, each brought to the screen by artists at Central Saint Martins. All five films will be premiered over an hour-long screening, accompanied live by the London Sinfonietta soloists.

Blue Touch Paper is where we light the fuse of new work, with different art forms in alternative spaces.
