“Ambitious, cleverly arranged, dense with possible meaning-- and, yes, a little strange” – Pitchfork

All the way from Mississauga, Canada, we are thrilled to present a special Beijing gig for Owen Pallett.

He's a violinist and composer of gorgeous, dizzying songs; soaring violins creating loops that pull listeners into his fantasy world. His take on indie-pop is intricate and layered. Pallett’s compositions are universes in miniature, worth exploring time and time again. Case in point: His score for Spike Jonze’s Her, nominated for an Oscar in 2014.

He’s worked with Arcade Fire, Mika, The National, Franz Ferdinand and countless others, ranging from forceful krautrock and brutal prog to serene neo-classical compositions. On stage, Pallett is “moody, majestic, cosmic.” Finding “beauty in a blizzard of sound.” [The Guardian]. Leading the audience into uncharted musical waters and strange new worlds.

Sunday 23 April 2017 at Beijing’s Yugong Yishan. Expect avant-garde orchestral pop at its finest, delivered with quirky, pointed humour.
