Week of Sound | Concert - Revolution

Presented as part of the technology-themed Week of Sound 2026, the programme explores the many meanings of ‘revolution’, from repeating motifs and circular musical forms, to the swirling gyres of nature.

Moving seamlessly between baroque, folk, music theatre, and contemporary sound worlds, the concert traces revolutions both natural and human-made, offering a vivid exploration of how sound, like nature, evolves through cycles of change.
