La Cité en fête

To open its season, Cité musicale-Metz transforms the Arsenal into a space for exploration, inviting audiences to move freely between 13 artistic experiences, from symphonic music to hip-hop, dance and contemporary music.

United Instruments of Lucilin joins the celebration with three works showcasing different facets of contemporary creation: a sound sculpture by Asia Ahmetjanova with Dabiski, a dialogue between violin and electronics by Michael Gordon, and the offbeat world of Francesco Filidei with Esercizio di pazzia I.

Three formats, three different ways of playing with sound and listening, and an invitation to discover Lucilin throughout a day full of surprises.

Programme:

Asia Ahmetjanova, Dabiski (2017–2023) – 7’ for string quartet

Michael Gordon, Industry (1992) – 10’ for violin and electronics

Francesco Filidei, Esercizio di pazzia I (2012) – 8’ for 4 performers
