The Kubus Kollektiv is an ensemble for new music based in Switzerland. The motif of night pervades the program, be it as a reference to the Roman night watches (Hefti), as darkness in the performance space (Haas) or as a threat (Kobzar). The extremely fragile fourth string quartet by Thomas Pernes (with character indications in the score such as "...this broken time", "another world", "isolation") and a new composition by the Graz-based Ukrainian composer Alisa Kobzar, with live electronics by the composer herself, take center stage.
