Eat the Score
- Workshop -
(Birmingham & Cardiff only)

We look at ways of re-shaping music we have at our disposal, either in a purely visual form, or as a way to re-create the music in a different way. Bring along some old music - or use ours - by 17th and 18th century composers such as Purcell, Haydn and Bach. With the help of scissors and glue we will ‘re-construct’ and digitally screen print your inventions on the risograph, and bring them back into sonic life with the help of Istante Collective.

Little Things in Odd Shapes
- Performance -

As part of our long-term project of rescuing music by lesser-known composers (who are often overshadowed by ‘the famous ones’) as well as re-arranging better known music for our little group. Expect operatic aria, show-off concertos and classical music presented in a digestable form.
