“Wormhole”, Baroque music and electronics at the University Auditorium
Worm Hole (literally 'wormhole') is the 4th Dialogue with the World Heritage Cervera 2019.

Throughout the tour, see how the prism of electronic music gradually enriches, transformed or supplemented Baroque works, opening up a world of infinite sonic possibilities. The reinterpretation of early Baroque repertoire from this perspective of transgression and instrumental timbre, Alloy generate a sound aesthetic unpublished between the XVII and XXI, that will survive even a few weeks in the 4th Dialogue is installed·installed after the concert.
