Speak Percussion: Filament

  • Melbourne Recital Centre 31 Sturt Street Southbank, VIC, 3006 Australia (map)

Filament is a showcase of artistic compositional voices in Post Instrumental Practice, a boundary-breaking field of contemporary percussion music.

In a program of Australian and world premieres, Speak Percussion present works by Cathy Van Eck, Josephine Macken, Marianthi Papalexandri-Alexandri and Andreas E. Frank. Focusing on electronics, bespoke instruments and simple everyday objects – a plant, a hairdryer, a quartet of windshield wiper motors.

An enthralling event that pushes the bounds of musical philosophies and unexpected sound worlds.
