THE MUSIC OF THE BEATLES REVISITED

Technopolis 20

19 August - 8pm

The Beatles are one of those bands that need no introduction. Despite the fact that they were active relatively for a short period of time, their long and diverse discography has had a huge impact on the development of modern music and they are regarded as the most influential band of all time.

The purpose of the project ‘The music of the Beatles: Revisited’ is not to cover their music but to re-interpret it. The procedure behind this was to first analyze the original material and then re-arrange it by integrating personal influences and elements of today’s music. The aim is to keep the core of their music present but the same to add something new to it.
