Founded in 2014, House of Absolute comprises eight members - vocalists, poets, choreographers and composers who have created performances for theatre, exhibitions, festivals and the fashion industry.
Their residency with Philharmonic Orchestra will fuse these elements with classical music in the first collaboration of its kind.
House of Absolute's creative producer Saskia Horton said: 'We envision a powerfully rich collaboration between House of Absolute and the Philharmonia with both entities’ incredible resources: the orchestra’s irrefutable expertise in symphonic performance, digital innovation, and outreach, and our company’s technical dexterity and proficiency in traversing artistic disciplines including dance, music, theatre, writing, spoken word and digital art.’
Plans for the collaboration so far include making a film, staging an orchestral club night, a weekend of talks and performances more.
