Blackout: in vain

In partnership with the 21C Festival, The Royal Conservatory of Music.

Hailed by Sir Simon Rattle as "one of the first masterpieces of the 21st century," Georg Friedrich Haas's in vain has become one of the defining works of our time, celebrated by audiences and critics alike since its premiere.

At its centre is a breathtaking 20-minute passage where the audience is plunged into total blackout.

This extraordinary 70-minute journey transforms the concert hall into an immersive listening experience unlike any other. in vain is a rare opportunity to experience one of the most powerful and unforgettable works in contemporary music.
