@mefisto and metallican – I'll edit my post such that it's clear, the setlist was not played as per the photo.
A photo of the set list was posted on Facebook but it appears the band played it in a slightly different order than written:

David Fricke in Rolling Stone
Here are three of the best albums of 2019 so far. Two of them are surprising and heartening resurrections by American bands who deserved better in their first lifetimes but haven’t given up. The third is bold prog-rock violence from Norway by a band with nearly three decades of mayhem in their discography but is still too much of a secret in this country. May the silence end here.
Motorpsycho, The Crucible (Rune Grammofon)
A single disc of only three tracks, one of which swallows the equivalent of an entire album side, the latest album by this long-mutating Norwegian band answers the question no one else has been brave enough to ask so far: What if Metallica, the 1972 Genesis and Crosby, Stills & Nash united to make their combined answer to Yes’ Close to the Edge? Originally forged in Nineties hardcore metal, Motorpsycho have pursued a more exciting and luminous line in heavy progressive rock — streaked with psychedelia, lined with Arctic-California harmonizing — for more than a decade. On The Crucible, Hans Magnus Ryan (voice, keys, guitar), Bent Saether (voice, bass, keys, lyrics) and their latest drummer Tomas Järmyr bind the double-album reach of 2017’s The Tower into a tighter sequence of hymns and blowouts, a focused composition and hard-turn theater of guitar-mountain themes, acid-choir interludes and Mellotron glaze that makes even the 21-minute title track feel an epic in your pocket — taut, full and to the point.
@otherdemon: Cheers. Watching now.
@otherdemon: I had thought that recording session was happening this month – not that it makes any difference. Like you say, it's exciting news. It seems hardly any time at all goes by here without some exciting news.
@cheezpleez – good choice
Unfortunately Gong are playing on the same night as Motorpsycho in London and a bunch of people in the prog community have already committed to that gig. Hopefully the venue is small enough not to make any difference.

(Athens added to this list)
Other rock musicians that I know loved and were influenced by Stravinsky include Frank Zappa and Jon Anderson (Yes). (No doubt there are others.) Does the future hold a Stravinsky-influenced MP album?
20.09.2019 – GR Athens, Fuzz Club
Is this a first time in Greece? I think the website mentions that they're returning after a long absence.
There are now even more dates to fill Рbetween Athens and Odense; and between K̦ln and Frankfurt.
