Monday 3 October
Celebrity recital given by 'The Lightning Theives'
Vestry Hall
7pm
This is a unique project that can not be missed.
Whether it's with electronic loops, enchanted melodies or supercharged grooves, expect Celtic to go Klezmer, or a finnish folk song to meld with an old English favourite.
Sounds that have cast a spell for centuries morph into distortion and explode with creative energy. This unique writing/performing team creates remarkable new instrumental effects in this–their latest and most unexpected output, a brand-new project of specially-written originals.
Enter a parallel musical universe where home-grown tunes, stark Scandanavian melodies, a blues version of a Rumanian wedding dance and medieval pop tunes might co-exist.
The BBC described their last joint musical collaboration as 'a dramatic, riveting and even sexy listen. This crackling electric cosmos is their most exciting project yet - and displays their lightning virtuoso skills to the full.'
