Hommage à Phill Niblock (1933–2024)
Phil Niblock – considered one of the most influential composers of the 20th century, known for his drone, minimalist and experimental pieces. His work pushed the boundaries of contemporary music, creating deep and hypnotic sound experiences.
Phil passed away a few months ago, he was a great friend of ours and performed many times at our festival. During the concert we will play a tribute to his memory, trying to present his works in an ambisonic version.
