TIME UNWRAPPED: ON THE HOUR

Time underpins all music – whether composers suspend it or mark it passing. The London Sinfonietta’s second concert in Kings Place’s Time Unwrapped is in three parts, each starting strictly on the hour. Each short segment and each piece tackles time in different ways, phasing and tangling it, slowing it right down or giving it a shot of adrenaline. Set your watches and allow music to alter your concept of time.
