Nextones Festival 2021: Caterina Barbieri presents light-years

The Italian composer and modular synthesist’s new label platform presents a show in collaboration with Bendik Giske and more.

Fact has partnered with Italy’s Nextones Festival to bring you highlights from this year’s event, which takes place at Cava La Beola di Monte, a historic quarry located between the shores of Lake Maggiore and Val D’Ossola.

Our second performance is the world premiere of Italian composer and modular synthesist Caterina Barbieri’s new label platform curated showcase, light-years. Sharing a name with her new label platform, light-years sees Barbieri perform with a changing cast of collaborators, which in this show included saxophonist Bendik Giske, Nkisi and MFO.

Fact will be presenting more video highlights from the festival this Friday, Saturday and Sunday on our website, YouTube and Instagram. For more information on the festival, including lineup and ticket sales, visit the Nextones website.
