Submit your details here for your chance to win a pair of tickets to London Sinfonietta’s Landmarks Series.
Landmarks is a new concert series created and produced by the London Sinfonietta and Netia Jones/Lightmap, which explores how we can connect the key points in the landscape of modern music. Immersive concert experiences will seamlessly weave together live world-class performances by the London Sinfonietta and integrated film created by Netia Jones. This series will leave audiences inspired and informed about music that has had great influence on contemporary art and culture, yet is so little understood by a wider public.
In 1939 in Görlitz , Germany, Olivier Messiaen was marched into a Nazi concentration camp. In his jacket was a pocket score of Alban Berg’s Lyric Suite. While incarcerated in Stalag VIIIA prisoner-of-war camp he composed and gave the first performance of one of the most important and affecting chamber music compositions of the last 50 years, the Quartet for the End of Time.
Each concert will feature film showing the composer and which also explores their works. With the live music, the audiences will be engaged for up to 90 minutes, similar to a cinema experience. Post-concert discussions will add to a deeper understanding of some of the world’s most important composers and musical movements of the past 100 years.
Netia Jones / Lightmap, the co-curator and video artist of the series says:
‘Integrating film and visual media in live concert performances can both support and enhance the musical performance, offering up layers of meaning and reflection, and behaving as a navigational tool. By setting a work, or a composer, within a context, and mapping the links between extraordinary moments in composition, the landscape of modern music can be explored in an unexpected and exciting way, encouraging a new audience to feel more informed, and an experienced audience to have a fresh approach to these extraordinary works. It is exhilarating to be collaborating with a group as ambitious and expert as the London Sinfonietta on this series.’
