This Turning World: Nature Music

As the globe turns and night follows day, how can humankind understand its place in the more-than-human world? This Turning World is an evocative performance that brings together music, poetry and visual images in a reflection on the natural world and our connection to it.

Drawing on musical traditions from all over the world, students from the Royal College of Music present a programme inspired by birds, animals, landscapes, rhythms of nature, and the changing cycles of our planet. This performance invites you to pause, listen and reflect on the natural environment: your impact on it, its impact on you.

Performers:

• Singers: Natalka Pasicznyk, Tiana Oberoi, Ingrid Leung
• Piano: Mar Umbert Kimura

This event is part of Science Cabaret at the Great Exhibition Road Festival on 6-7 June 2026.

The event takes place in a zone for people aged 18+ only. People younger than 18 will not be allowed entry into the building.

Please arrive at the venue 10 minutes before the start time. Your ticket gives you priority access, however, as this is a free event if you do not arrive 10 minutes before the start time your space may be reallocated. Early arrival reduces this risk.
