Remembering the Future
Thursday 16 October, 6.30pm – 7.30pm
The title of this performance refers to ensemble The Hola's recreation and combination of a wide variety of compositional and performance practices from many ages, including the incantation and powerful delivery of Eastern European polyphony, the enchantment of Indian, Arabic and Chinese musical traditions and instruments, gamelan-inflected vocal melodies and elements of playground music. All this is brought together in a uniquely expressive whole. With Ignacio Agrimbau (oud, moxenio, vocals), James Weeks (harpsichord, vocals), Sophie Appleton (violin, vocals), Joe Kelly (double bass, charango, mandolin, vocals) and John Habron (percussion and vocals).
