We had a wonderful time performing to an appreciative London audience
@unionchapeluk last weekend. It was lovely to get such a positive review in
@the_arts_desk as well:
"Beautiful singing at the heart of an imaginative and stylistically varied concert"
"One of the most innovative vocal groups around"
"
@sdacey 's 'All that we see' presented its text, taken from a medieval Arabic scientist, with a suitably wide-eyed sense of discovery. Scattered bits of speech sat within harmony that was reminiscent of Gesualdo and the equivocal ending was beautifully judged"
"The spectacular opening organ crescendo of
@comeauben 's 'Enter the Tumultous Night' explored the full range of the Union Chapel instrument... enjoyably ambitious writing"
"Dancer
@jamalsterrett performed three numbers; his infinite flexibility and grace were hypnotic"
"Stylish singing by
@gabriellaliandu "
"I haven't heard it done better;
@margaretlingas ' solo floating into the church's roof"
"
@sarah_latto 's leadership of the group was, like her spoken links, both reassuringly down-to-earth and skybound: her fluid conducting gestures have a weightlessness that lets the singing fly"
Thank you to everyone who came out to see it 💃. We'll be touring this programme next summer 🌒 🌑 🌙.
