George Lewis:
Artificial Life (2007)
The Deformation of Mastery
Big Shoulders Sharp Elbows
Kulokker

In a concert given in the presence of the composer himself, RCM musicians perform an eclectic range of his flamboyant ensemble scores.

George Lewis is a musical alchemist, turning an array of elements into gold: expect mind-expanding timbres, subtle textures and adventurous techniques incorporating electronics and experimental procedures. He is one of the most versatile musicians in the world, combining his practical experience of improvisation as a jazz trombonist with a meticulous and inventive mind, pioneering new technologies to create fresh palettes of musical colour.

Don’t miss the chance to hear George Lewis offer insights into his music during a pre-concert talk with RCM Head of Composition, Professor Jonathan Cole.

This event is part of George Lewis Day.
