“Music Current festival in Dublin has its finger more firmly on the pulse of what’s happening in Europe and internationally.”- Journal of Music

Music Current continues to punch above its weight as this small but perfectly formed annual music festival returns this April for another 5 days of pulsating new Irish and international music – with a defined focus on light and video [AI]:

Dublin Sound Lab’s Music Current festival returns this April with an outstanding dive into light breath and video this year as the annual five-day festival programme showcases some of the best Irish and international contemporary music makers. The festival will host 5 new concerts Black Page Orchestra Tak Ensemble lovemusic collective and the return of Nadar Ensemble as well as workshops on AI electronic music and new composition and more discussions that explore cutting edge new music and the future of music. The festival takes over its creative home space at Project Arts Centre from April 2 – 6.

Music Current 2024 is the 8th edition of the festival and it continues to platform some of the most trailblazing music artists including composer João Pedro Oliveira (Portugal) TAK Ensemble (USA) Black Page Orchestra (Austria) Nadar Ensemble (Belgium) and lovemusic collective (France) – most performing in Ireland for the very first time. It’s an exciting mix and meeting of these creative minds in the current New Media and post-digital environment where composers are increasingly using new techniques and strategies to organise sound. And it all becomes very apparent at Music Current.
