Cutting edge contemporary classical music in the bmic 2006 concert series

about

Bmic's acclaimed concert series The Cutting Edge returns this autumn with an exciting line-up of internationally renowned performers and new music.

We begin with The Finnissy Weekend, a land-mark celebration in the 60th birthday year of one of the UK's most original and influential voices. This year's Cutting Edge is rich in anniversaries, with Lutyens, Babbitt, Feldman, Cardew and Hellawell also celebrated, whilst the New London Chamber Choir mark their 25th anniversary in the series finale.

Watch out for a special three week ‘keyboard mini-fest’ from the 26th of October, featuring three keyboard duos playing on everything from standard pianofortes to spinet and toy pianos. And an intriguing subplot featuring experimental music, from New York to Germany and the UK then back to New York!

With more than fifty premieres scheduled for the series, you are bound to experience something new and unexpected. So, come and be aurally stimulated at the Bmic's Cutting Edge every week this autumn!
