About the inscenation

Icelandic composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Ólafur Arnalds is returning to Prague with his project *Falling Apart Together*, which he describes as his most daring work to date. On April 12 and 13, 2027, he will present his unique concert format at the Hybernia Theater, which seeks to break down the distance we typically create between one another. The two Prague concerts will also be one of the highlights of the upcoming 14th edition of the Spectaculare Festival. Seated tickets will go on sale on July 1 on the festival’s website.

Falling Apart Together reveals the layers behind which we hide to feel safe, as well as the moments when these constructs begin to crumble. Arnalds, together with his team of musicians and visual artists, weaves new material with a cross-section of his own work in a way that redefines the traditional roles of the stage and the audience. Following tours for the albums *re:member* and *some kind of peace*—during which he sold out venues such as the Royal Albert Hall, the Elbphilharmonie, and the Sydney Opera House—he is coming to Prague with a project that is also his most personal to date.

Ólafur Arnalds, also known as one half of the cult duo Kiasmos, is one of the most prominent figures in contemporary neoclassical and electronic music. A BAFTA Award winner for the soundtrack to the series *Broadchurch*, he has built an international reputation for his ability to seamlessly blend piano, strings, and electronics. Falling Apart Together, however, represents his most sincere project to date and turns our attention to what can happen when we allow ourselves to let go of control just enough to truly open up to others.

The concert will take place as part of the 14th edition of the multi-genre Spectaculare festival, which will be held at various locations in Prague in March and April 2027.
