"Three degrees of freedom. Music > Cinema > USSR" is a large multi-platform study dedicated to the phenomenon of the Soviet film music. As part of the project, for the first time the concert will be dedicated to the work of the Soviet and Russian composer Alexander Knaifel.

Spectators will be able to visit an audiovisual concert with spatial sound, where the works will be performed on an acousmonium – an orchestra of almost fifty loudspeakers. The conductor will move sound around the hall in real time, and the live music will be complemented by a video installation and special lighting architecture.
