hcmf// invites you to meet this year’s Composer in Residence, Georg Friedrich Haas. Born in Graz, Austria in 1953 Haas has quietly risen to become one of the most important Austrian composers internationally, heralded by Sir Simon Rattle as having written the first ‘masterpiece’ of the 21st century, in vain, which received its UK premiere at hcmf// 2013. This in depth look at the composer’s practice will explore his commitment to experimentation with sound, and the use of darkness and light as an integral component of his work.
