Experimental ensemble The Hermes Experiment presents a new project in collaboration with composers Mira Calix and Alex Mills. The composers’ two new works written for the ensemble will respond to the improvisatory and unusually notated music of John Cage, and his student Christian Wolff.
Following a collaborative process between the ensemble and the composers, the commissions will focus on maximising the potential of the group’s unique sound world through innovative notation. Along the two world premieres, the ensemble will perform a new, specially drawn graphic score by Eloise Gynn.
