Illuminate Adelaide, the South Australian capital’s winter festival, has unveiled its 2026 program.
‘This year’s program is set to again draw huge crowds and I can’t wait for South Australians – and tens of thousands of interstate and overseas visitors – to come and experience world-class artists and support our local businesses.’
Presenting a new composition by lead artist Hilary Kleinig played live by pianist Erik Griswold on a prepared piano, The Lost Art of Listening also features a choir of smartphones – the audience’s own devices, via a specially created and downloaded app – playing an experimental soundscape that blends field recordings, vintage synths and the sounds of wind and rain.
