Programme Note

Join us for a completely different concert experience as we explore the creative ways that people can connect and communicate through music from different cultures.

Seamlessly blending music from Europe, India and the Middle East, this event will leave the audience’s hearts full and their preconceptions challenged, as five extraordinary artists demonstrate the remarkable communicative power of music. They will also give the world premiere of a newly composed piece by Effy Efthymiou for this unusual ensemble, commissioned by NW Live Arts.

We will explore cultural connections further in a one-day music and storytelling workshop for members of London’s diverse community, with participants from partner organisations Freedom from Torture, Holborn Community Association and St John’s Waterloo.
