Saturday, November 22th at 7.30pm, Conway Hall, 25 Red Lion Square, London WC1R 4RL
IO Quartet and Hyperion Ensemble perform new works by Dumitrescu and Avram. Soloists: Tim Hodgkinson (UK), Gustavo Aguilar (USA).

“Dumitrescu’s music has a visceral, untidy force rare in classical music -- the textures of Xenakis pared of the later’s Beethovenian ambition, made more focused and linear. Seems like these Romanians are engaged in a similar kind of sonic research to that which resulted on the masterpieces of Giacinto  Scelsi and Ennio Morricone: collective  endeavor, genuine “deep listening”. The results are similarly overpowering, a million miles from the tooting inconsequence or most of what passes for New Music in the classical world.” Ben  Watson, The Wire | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iancu_Dumitrescu
