Pioneering festival curator Ilan Volkov is renowned for his experimental collaborations and unique approach to programming – both of which feature in this special London Sinfonietta Mix, with Volkov at its helm. Combining the music of maverick Italian composer Fausto Romitelli with a new commission from George Lewis and live performance of Groove with Christian Marclay on turntables, this mini-festival explores the fascinating possibilities that can arise when different genres collide.
