Anna Clyne This Midnight Hour Mozart Piano Concerto No12 K414 Tchaikovsky Symphony No5 Elim Chan Conductor Steven Osborne Piano

Tchaikovsky asks the whole orchestra to play ‘with desire and passion’ in his romantic Fifth Symphony; Anna Clyne creates a vision of music as a free spirit, running through the night; and Mozart relaxes with friends in a concerto that reveals him at his graceful, brilliant best.

With Elim Chan conducting and Scotland’s foremost living pianist standing in for Amadeus himself, every note should go exactly where it belongs – straight to the heart.

Chronoscope

Robert Powell with Louise Wild

The chronoscope is designed to not only tell the time but also convey how, why and what time really is. As each slither of time bursts into being, it gauges and visualises the exact nature of that particular moment. (It is no wonder that the chronoscope sometimes runs a little slow.)

Luckily, it has a range of tricks inherited from medieval astronomical clocks and its namesakes made by James Cox (1723-1800). Using these, it can express as many individual temporal characters as there are motes of time in the universe.

Human AutomatArt

Silent Chaos

Every human being has become a living set of data and a potential content creator. The Music Hall is now a bespoke information collector, gathering data from the people and the activities occurring there, via a bespoke network of different sensors, and then visualised live. Silent Chaos analyse and decode the world through the use of new technologies. By creating unusual instruments, which can include live plants, to play in their performances, they research and experiment with new media, live video manipulation, sound-driven video and creative coding.
