AN INTIMATE PERFORMANCE AT A FORMER COFFEE WAREHOUSE-TURNED-RESTAURANT

Where The Light Gets In

Join Manchester Collective at Stockport restaurant Where The Light Gets In for the first in a set of intimate, sensory performances. Limited to an audience of 35, this really is more of a house concert than a normal gig – an opportunity to get up and close to the musicians, and share in this special experience. The ticket price includes a glass of natural wine or non-alcoholic beverage and a small bite to eat, made with freshly picked produce from the WTLGI garden. After the show, there’ll be the chance to have a chat and a drink with the musicians.There are two performances to choose from – a 2pm and a 5pm one. Each show will last just over an hour.

In Manchester Collective’s first major touring project of the year, we bring together a strange and unsettling set of otherworldly music.Molly Joyce’s ecstatic ‘High and Low’ opens the programme – solo piano presented as a celestial, supercharged, percussive force of nature. ‘Curved Form (St Endellion)’ by Alex Groves, performed live for the first time, conjures up a meditative seascape for live electronics and strings. Listeners are submerged in cascading tides and layered textures, contrasting sharply with Andrew Hamilton’s frenetic ‘In Beautiful May’.In the end though, it’s back to the sea. Down, down, down. The night finishes with George Crumb’s enigmatic ‘Vox Balaenae’, performed on instruments that are amplified and modified. Music from another world.<a href="https://manchestercollective.co.uk/whale" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">manchestercollective.co.uk/whale</a>
