Impulse
A memorised, kinetic production of Shostakovich’s Chamber Symphony and Tchaikovsky’s Serenade for Strings, performed by Scottish Ensemble and developed in partnership with choreographer Örjan Andersson.
Bringing performers and audience into the very heart of the music, the musicians are set free to create a striking visual representation of the patterns, intricacies, and passion of these iconic works. This is music that encompasses the entire human emotional spectrum. From the darkest, most desolate despair, the kind that burrows into the corners of your psyche, to utter euphoria, the kind that sets you free. This is the human condition painted in high intensity colours.
