GO - Movement in Space

Moving around in space is one of the most fundamental experiences in life – and one which, traditionally, is almost completely disregarded in the context of concerts.

Exactly what is to be expected from "contemporary arts music" and from a festival with the name "Wien Modern", which is at odds with all the clichés of Vienna?
