Concentration
Concentration - composure and purposeful orientation towards a cause, joining of forces, density of structures, focussing on the essentials.
A multilayered motto for this year's version of ad hoc music: on the surface, the temporal concentration of most dates shortly before and in the first half of December.
On the other hand, a common element of the invited groups despite their extremely diverse musical approaches: exploring, curious, attentive to detail, generating distinctive soundscapes.
This kind of music cannot be created en passant, just as it won't be absorbed casually. Performers and listeners have to make it happen by their joint concentration.
So let us concentrate on the seventh edition of ad hoc music and be prepared for complex and profound sound experiences.
You won't be disappointed!
