Or performed at a concert with a live comment feed displayed on the wall? Or composed musical Twitter poems? Cellist Peter Gregson has done all of it of his own accord and is being acclaimed for it not only by classical sector, but also by the media and technology world. His pioneering work in refreshing the classical genre earned him the prestigious Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland award for music in November 2008 as well as membership to the Courvoisier Future 500. In January 2010 Peter was selected Creative in Residence (Music) by the Hospital Club London for 2010/2011.Click here to check out his performance at Twitter HQ in 2009.Click here to view his performance using an electric sensor cello suit at MIT Media Lab in 2010.Tickets can be purchased from Aberdeen Box Office, 01224 641122.
