Rupert Guenther - The Cosmology Concert



Witness Rupert Guenther taking us on an epic journey in space and time.

Along with a large screen experience of beautiful astrophotography and using live electronic looping, the musician delivers a bespoke concert created exclusively for Boola Bardip.

Turning the violin into an astonishing vehicle for his art, the artist evokes, through sound and music, an extraordinary picture of the cosmos and our momentary place in it – from the very origins of time to futuristic visions of the night skies.

 

Rupert is an international composer-violinist who has performed for over 20 years in venues that include Tate Britain London, National Gallery of Victoria Melbourne, Guildhall Festival London and recitals in Sweden, Austria, Italy and USA. Trained as a virtuoso concert violinist in Vienna, Austria, his deep feeling for music and the natural environment has fuelled his musical passions over a diverse range of musical styles since a young age. Formerly a member of the Vienna Chamber Opera, Guenther has been sideman to the stars such as Beatles’ producer Sir George Martin, Olivia-Newton John, Demis Roussos, John Farnham, Anthony Warlow, and Hollywood singer-songwriter Lisbeth Scott.
