Dots+Loops Conviction

  • Upstairs at Newstead Brewing Co. Milton 67 Castlemaine Street Brisbane, Queensland Australia (map)

An exploration of faith in the 21st century, Dots+Loops explores the concepts of religion and belief from multiple perspectives.

Brisbane-born, NY-based violin soloist ​Courtenay Cleary​ presents the Australian premiere of ​David Lang's "Mystery Sonatas"​, complimented by uniquely organic live visuals from ​Team Animal Spirits​. Virtuosic, transcendental explorations of faith and emotion, Lang’s perspective is that of an agnostic examining the mystery of religion and belief itself.

British-Australian mezzo soprano ​Lotte Betts-Dean​ will open the concert with a special set of solo vocal music from pioneering medieval composer and mystic ​Hildegard von Bingen​, and curated by Betts-Dean herself.

The live performances then flow into an ambient audiovisual "remix" of the concert by ​Tilman Robinson​, providing a backdrop for performers, composers and audience members chat and mingle.
