Looking for a quieter and contemplative refuge amidst ADE? Over two October days at the heart of Amsterdam in Splendor, the MAZE collective presents a contemporary composition festival built around memory and dreams, and around what happens when music is made, performed and heard through remembering. The festival, much like the collective, dissolves the hierarchy between the composer, score, performer and listener through adventurous approaches. Among the programme, you’ll be able to experience several premieres of newly created works, previously created compositions seeing a new iteration, join a workshop and panel talks. For a beautiful closing moment on Sunday, don’t miss the final concert with three pieces by the beloved late composer Eliane Radigue. Saturday 24 October evening concerts: 18:30 Opening + Yannis Kyriakides: Fundaments & Variants (20’) presented as an installation at de KleineZaal, 20:00 – MAZE: Peter Ablinger: Book of Returns (25’), 20:30 – Tarozzi & Walker: Canti di guerra, di lavoro e d’amore (25’), 21:00 – MAZE+ Jasna Veličković: Jasna Veličković: new work (20’), 21:30 – MAZE: Christian Marclay: Shuffle (15’)
