TRIPLE SPIRAL is a new work composed by Justin Grounds, drawing inspiration from Baroque instruments and bringing it into the present day. The result is vibrant, contemporary, and mesmerising! The 3 movements (spirals) have the fast-slow-fast structure of an 18th-century trio sonata, while taking inspiration from modern drum’n’bass beats and rhythmic patterns, electronic music, and particle physics.
