Musical Promenades: Musical Dyst(r)opia

Mon. 31 March 2025 17:30

Acropolis Museum

The 20th century imbued the concept of the "beautiful” with new dimensions through its music (and creativity in the other arts). In many cases, Beauty now emerged out of the grotesque, the brutal, the ineffable – even the deformed. As long as the ensuing artwork was born of inner necessity, the stimulus that brought it into being was a valid source of inspiration for an imaginative artist. And this is absolutely the case with all three works in this concert, which promises to ratchet up the tension while delivering exhilaration in spades!

Further information will be announced
