The project ‘Diversity’ by Ruben Zahra & CROSSBREED ensemble is committed to contemporary expression with a music programme portraying an intriguing fusion of musical styles: from avant-garde compositions to hard-rock arrangements, soundtracks and cartoon music. The programme ‘Diversity’ has been conceived by Maltese composer Ruben Zahra to portray an eclectic combination of works that reflect today’s multi-lingual soundtrack. The music of György Ligeti, Iron Maiden, Iannis Xenakis, Looney Tunes, Henry Cowell …and more, will clash together in one programme to celebrate music diversity. This project was premiered on the 23rd of October 2011 at the Torino GAM – Galleria d’Arte Moderna for the opening event of the contemporary music festival Musiche in Mostra.
