Christian Marclay participates in Tectonic Festival, Athens, where Screenplay will be performed by musicians Elena Kakaliagou, Kostis Kilymis and Vassilis Tzavaras.

The festival aims to challenge the traditional orchestra format, and explore how it can be more radical and experimental.

Marclay is a key contributor to the programme, bringing together seemingly incompatible musical practices. Symphonic works, free improvisation, noise chamber music, sound installations and folk music will come together over the two-day festival.
