Ryoji Ikeda Weekend
Discover an extraordinary weekend of stellar acoustic compositions from Japan’s leading electronic composer and visual artist Ryoji Ikeda.
Japan’s leading electronic composer and visual artist Ryoji Ikeda focuses on the essential characteristics of sound itself and that of visuals as light by means of both mathematical precision and mathematical aesthetics. Ikeda has gained a reputation as one of the few international artists working convincingly across both visual and sonic media. He elaborately orchestrates sound, visuals, materials, physical phenomena and mathematical notions into immersive live performances and installations.
Percussionists include Alexandre Babel, Stéphane Garin, Julien Garin and Amélie Grould. We also welcome Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir, Ensemble Modern and Solem Quartet.
