Programme Note
A captivating evening bringing together leading musicians and writers from Freedom from Torture’s Write to Life group.
The world-renowned musicians of NWLive Arts bring influences from the West African Griot tradition, Indian Punjabi music, Western European classical music and folk music from Europe and the Middle East. Write to Life’s writers, who met as clients of Freedom from Torture’s unique writing and performance group, add their lived experience on the journey from an unspeakable past to new lives, and new voices, here in Britain. The resulting programme of solos and ensemble pieces brings the two groups together in an unforgettable musical conversation.
