One word: Complex. Also inaccessible, elitist and hard to understand. And that is not all that can be said. What about a different point of view? How about getting intrigued, learning more, understanding and... liking it? This idea led Spółdzielnia Muzyczna, an ensemble balancing between the 20th-century classics and audio experiments, has prepared the Interakcje (Interactions) series - a way to enter the seemingly alien world of new music. “During our Interactions, we freely explore the territories of 20th-century music, break free from its traditional understanding, delve into electronic and ambient sounds, confront textual and visual materials and search for new identities in the chaotic present,” claim the artists.
