DISSONANZE 08 - Rome in May
Dissonanze, the festival for electronic music and multimedia art returns to Rome for the eighth year.
It is going to once again distinguish itself as one of Europe’s foremost events for electronic music and multimedia art - a space in which music meets experience, and gives rise to new expressions of sound and art, in the astonishing historic environs of Rome.
The 2008 edition of Dissonanze will also involve new spaces. The historic and architecturally acclaimed PALAZZO DEI CONGRESSI and L’AUDITORIUM PARCO DELLA MUSICA (which last year hosted the great Karlheinz Stockhausen: first and foremost) will remain this year – but another extraordinary space, the museum of the ancient l’ARA PACIS, will be added to the list.
The lineup of artists is quite impressive, which makes Dissonanze, running from the 9th till the 10th of May 2008, one of the European festivals to visit this year.
