Narrativity in music has been regarded as an outdated mode of expression. But with the rise of visual media in the concert environment the relation between music and non-musical references is on the rise.

In this programme, Ensemble MAE will present works that deal with the idea of new narratives, how music functions when it is up against stories presented in visual terms or how text might colour how we hear things.
