At their Cutting Edge (external link) concert, Plus-Minus (external link) presents a programme that spans a stimulating musical range between melodious minimalism and conceptual noise music. New British music will be showcased by premieres from Laurence Crane and Matthew Shlomowitz (external link) and a welcome revival of Markus Trunk’s Raw Rows. By way of an overdue introduction to UK audiences, the programme will be completed by three pieces for instruments and tape from the Berlin-based composer Peter Ablinger (external link).
