Join us in our continuing journey, following a previous opus 1 event at Imperial College, for an evening of musical improvisation, neuroscience of shared experience and consciousness, and delve into what the joint performance of improvisation can show us about what it means to be human.
 
The evening is not just a concert but an interactive experience. You'll have the opportunity to engage in active listening, witness mind-reading, and explore the themes of trust and joint risk-taking. The event will also include a conversation between audience members, the musicians, and the round-table panel.
 
Presented in partnership with Imperial College London
