Considered the ‘Fringe’ of Irish new music festivals, Music Current is back for its fifth year and Dublin Sound Lab are once again giving Dublin audiences the chance to experience fresh sounds from the very forefront of contemporary music and composition.
Music Current 2020 will showcase Irish electronic music alongside new international repertoire featuring the very best guest composers and international performers, as well as providing a participation strand for composers to take part in masterclasses, discussions, collaborations and new commission opportunities.
Dublin Sound Lab is a contemporary music project group specialising in electronic and computer-mediated concert performance. As well as presenting existing works, they initiate collaborations and use computer-based techniques to explore relationships between compositional process and performance practice, and to create new and engaging concert experiences.
Music Current is produced in collaboration with the Contemporary Music Centre and supported by the Arts Council and Dublin City Council
