THIS Saturday you can witness a unique concert, inspired by the art of one of the world’s greatest living visual artists - Gerhard Richter.
Taking place simultaneously at four different venues, the concert will involve four Yamaha Disklavier pianos |separated by 300 miles and remotely controlled by a parent Disklavier at Falmouth’s Academy of Music and Theatre Arts (AMATA).
These pianos will be played by just one live pianist, Roderick Chadwick. In addition, the same music |re-composed by Jim Aitchison for the strings of the Kreutzer Quartet, will be performed back from The Royal Academy of Music (RAM) to all the other venues via audio link.
Free tickets are available for the performance at Falmouth University’s Academy of Music and Theatre Arts, where members of the public will be able to witness both the live performance and three simultaneous performances in real time via state-of-the-art video and audio technology.
Tickets are available online at www.portraitsforastudy.eventbrite.co.uk.
Taking place on Saturday, February, 22 from 7.30pm the simultaneous performance will occur between Cornwall and London, at Falmouth University’s Academy of Music and Theatre Arts, the Royal Academy of Music, Goldsmiths University and Yamaha Music London.
