Sara Mohr-Pietsch presents conversation and music from a diverse and intercontinental group of musicians at the String Theories event at London's Kings Place, which is curated by Nigel Osborne. They include a New York jazz flautist, a French punk guitarist, a Chilean political songwriter, a German gondola pianist and a Japanese ultra-modernist - who have written miniatures for the Edinburgh String Quartet, linked by transformational sound-design installations.
