About Ensemble Axis Mundi

Contemporary music collective Axis Mundi explores new music drawing on cross-cultural, folkloristic, and spiritual inspiration. 
This programme features works inspired by Japanese kite fights, Zen Buddhist architecture, Chinese New Year firework displays, and the deeper meaning behind Ariel’s song from Act Five of Shakespeare’s The Tempest.
