The Atlantic String Machine has gained a reputation for its eclectic musical style, and this evening will be a celebration of diversity in genre, form, and sound. The Island-based quintet includes all string instruments, and have won Music PEI Awards for Achievement in Classical Music the past two years running as well as picking up an ECMA nomination for Best Classical Album.
Join these exceptional musicians on a journey that embraces the winter season but will also provide a brief escape to a place that will warm your musical spirit.
In a rare concert opportunity, this intimate chamber performance will reverse the room, inviting the audience to take their seats on the Homburg Theatre stage while the string musicians perform on the thrust edge of the main stage.
“They love the music, they explain – both musically and in words – why they love it, they ask us to hear it with fresh ears and to love it, too.”
— Ann Thurlow, The Buzz
“ASM has been wowing Island audiences with its performances of a wide range of music – from classical to jazz, to pop, to world music, along with the group’s own compositions…”
— Todd MacLean, The Guardian

What are Relaxed Performances?
Sometimes referred to as sensory-friendly experiences, Relaxed Performances give the opportunity for those with various sensitivities towards sensory stimuli to experience and enjoy live theatre.
These performances will be designed in a way to be more comfortable for audience members who may experience anxiety or are not comfortable with some aspects of a traditional theatre setting. This can include people on the Autism Spectrum and their families; those with sensory and communicative disorders or learning disabilities; people with Tourette’s syndrome; someone who might need to move often due to chronic pain or to use the facilities; or even parents with toddlers.
