While the full line-up will be announced on March 15, we can now reveal that Vivid LIVE will feature a “special commission” of new works created and performed by Sufjan Stevens, composer Nico Muhly (Björk, Philip Glass) and Bryce Dessner (The National). Linehan describes the trio as “the defining creative minds of New York’s current music scene”. He said the performance was facilitated with the help of the Barbican Centre in London and the Muziekgebouw in Eindhoven.
Vivid LIVE at Sydney Opera House is part of Vivid Sydney, which runs from May 25 to June 11.
