This program focuses on young composers and pieces for string instruments with electronics and video.

David Bird is one of the most promising composers from USA and develops a very singular repertoire which includes systemic technologies as a complete part of the writing process. In drop for string quartet and strobe projectors, the question of light defines new ways of perceiving the music field as a new possible counterpoint.

For this concert, we have also commissioned a new piece by Monika Szpyrka, a Kraków-based young composer, who also questions music practices by adding video and electronics.
