Das Londoner Ensemble Apartment House wurde 1995 von dem Cellisten Anton Lukoszevieze gegrünet, um dem konservativen britischen Musikleben eine lebendige Alternative entgegenzusetzen. Konsequent befasst es sich mit wagermutigeren Komponisten und Projekten, unternimmt auch Ausflüge in von Performance und Improvisation geprägte Gefilde. Das Ensemble scheint kaum etwas mehr zu scheuen, als bereits erforschtes Gelände noch einmal auszuschreiten, wie an seinen Programmen abzulesen ist.

 

Programme to include;

Hans W. Koch - The Alkan Graph

Claudia Molitor - Pink Beads Pop

Tim Parkinson - septet (2007) 

Christopher Fox - Chromascope

John Lely - Discovering Counterpoint

Rytis Mazulis - Canon Mensurabilis

Reinhold Friedl - String Quartet
