Nonclassical presents: Curated by Freya Waley-Cohen

Add to my Calendar 12-07-2017 20:00 12-07-2017 22:00 36 Nonclassical presents: Curated by Freya Waley-Cohen Join Nonclassical for an evening curated by one of our Associate Composers Freya Waley-Cohen with performances by viola da gamba player Liam Byrne and contemporary quartet The Hermes Experiment. We will explore the idea of intimacy in chamber music. From the more extroverted opening (music by Meredith Monk), the night will bring the listener into the delicate and complex world of the soloist. A song cycle by Freya Waley-Cohen explores intimate relationships from a female perspective. All this plus the usual ace combination of craft beer, amazing burgers and Nonclassical DJs. Doors open 8pm, live music from 8.30pm. More info: Freya Waley-Cohen's music has been performed by the Manson Ensemble at the Royal Academy of Music, conducted by Oliver Knussen, the Orchestra of the Swan, conducted by David Curtis, CHROMA ensemble, The Hermes Experiment, Reverie Choir, Richard Watkins, Huw Watkins and others. She holds an Open Space residency at Aldeburgh Music where she was a Britten-Pears Young Artist in both 2014 & 2015. The Hermes Experiment is a British contemporary quartet made up of harp, clarinet, voice and double bass, and were the winners of our Battle of the Bands 2014. Liam Byrne divides his time between playing very old and very new music on the viol. He has been praised in The Times for his “nuanced and expressive, stylish virtuosity” and by The Guardian for his “glittering performance”. The Victoria Dalston, London DD/MM/YYYY
