Creative Connections
Wed 17 Apr 2024 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM
St John's Waterloo, SE1 8TY
Description
We are NW Live Arts. We love music and we love telling stories. We've invited five musicians to co-curate a concert, sharing their favourite music from their cultures and their careers as musicians. The result is a captivating mix of music from plainchant by Hildegard of Bingen, to music by North American composer Kenji Bunch, accordion virtuosi Richard Galliano and Astor Piazzolla, violin music by Enescu and arrangements of pieces by Attab Haddad and Kuljit Bhamra - both of whom will perform in the concert. The programme will also include solos from Kuljit's latest album A Tablanaut’s Journey. The programme is delightfully woven together in a continuous 70-minute performance, telling stories of what brings us together in a joyful celebration of our shared humanity.
Alongside the concert performance, we're running creative workshops with the St John's Waterloo community. In these workshops, music, improvisation and storytelling will collide, culminating in a soundscape devised by the musicians and workshop attendees as equal creative partners.
NW Live Arts presents Creative Connections, in conjunction with St John's Waterloo.
