The founding fathers of Spectral music have always had strong bonds with American composers. Two concerts will present the works of a younger generation of American composers alongside a few seminal compositions of this movement. A key trait is the possible analogy with landscape and its representations. The audience is invited to let go of all bearings and experience music as they would a mural or a light installation.
