[REACTIONS] by Crash Ensemble at The Linenhall Arts Centre

Crash Ensemble play a selection of their [REACTIONS] commissions & postcard miniatures as part of their Irish tour, alongside sounds from across the globe and a brand new piece Standing Water by Kevin Terry, winner of the National Concert Hall Jerome Hynes Young Composers Award. A little bit about the [REACTIONS] series: Amidst the onset of the global pandemic, Crash commissioned Irish & International composers from a range of musical backgrounds to write new works for duos within the group. Building on existing collaborative partnerships and cultivating and nurturing new relationships, composers were invited to create a musical response to their experiences, the current state and their thoughts for the future. Crash Ensemble is strategically funded by the Arts Council of Ireland.
