Benjamin Northey conductor

Prepare for a thrilling program of contemporary innovation where music meets art. Experience the shimmering textures of Esa-Pekka Salonen’s Fog, written for the 90th birthday of celebrated architect Frank Gehry, followed by the vibrant energy of a brand new work by Australian composer Vanessa Perica. Sound and image achieve a euphoric synchronicity in Steve Reich’s Reich/Richter, a hypnotic multimedia synthesis of Reich’s music with German artist Gerhard Richter’s kaleidoscopic visual art.

Vanessa Perica’s New Work commissioned for WASO by Catherine Dunn.
