Improvising violinist Angharad Davies performing with pianists Tisha Mukarji and Andrea Neumann.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.

A queer black operatic requiem for piano and voice that asks us to stay in the hold of the slave ship, that tries to understand the connection from the slave ship to the prison.
A Feral Choir of people who’ve never improvised with their voices before, conducted by improviser yodeller, composer Phil Minton.
Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.
This programme is a celebration of Charlemagne Palestine; passionate, extravagant, visceral. Including two sections from Ritual dans le Vide, an extension of his ‘running camera’ works of the 70’s and Pip Chodorov’s vibrant workout of a live version of Strumming Music.
