The aptly named Liquid Rooms by the Ictus Ensemble are fluid spaces with multiple stages and an uninterrupted stream of music. You can come and go, hop over to the bar and return. The fluid format always centers on an inspiring theme or figure: this time it is innovative American musical pioneer Robert Ashley. This multimodal project is a collaboration between Contrechamps and the mythical ensemble from Brussels, where it will premiere before being performed at Archipel.
