Opening event of BERG Orchestra's new season
Contemporary music performed by the BERG Orchestra – new season’s opening concert! Psychedelico-lyrical fresco WhatsPop (2022) by French composer Aurélien Dumont combines contemporary music, pop culture, philosophy, and literature. The exceptionally demanding vocal part reflects a huge number of musical styles and voice registers, from Renaissance music to rock and noise. Music instruments include toaster, typewriter or hairdryer. Integral part of the work is also a dialogue of the singer with a selected personality – our guest will
be Pavel Klusák, music journalist.

The fourth instalment of the long-term project Point of View once again presents an exhibition and a classroom in one. The artistic approaches here open up a space to slow down and pay attention – a space for shared experience. They allow us to linger with uncertainty, to think and feel at the same time, and to seek strength in fragility.
