»A musical party that sounds like late Beethoven on speed,« wrote the Stuttgarter Zeitung after the premiere of Alex Paxton’s »How to Eat Your Sexuality« in February 2025. The three-part work by the successful British composer, whose music The New York Times described with good reason as »the most cheerful sound in a long time«, is never cerebral, but rather direct, wild and colourful.
