From 6-8 June this year there will be a unique opportunity to see Michael Nyman performing alongside his favourite musicians, including Sarah Leonard, Marie Angel, Hilary Summers, Franceso D’Orazio, the Michael Nyman Band and Wingate’s Brass Band. A fascinating range of Nyman’s music from 1977 to 2008 will be presented, including several premieres, two major song cycles ( Six Celan Songs and I Sonetti Lussuriosi ), silent films with live accompaniment ( Man with a Movie Camera and A Propos de Nice ), football-related memorial works ( Memorial and For Kiyan Prince ), a new Violin Concerto, Greenaway classics, and pieces from the latest MN Records releases.
Nyman will also present for the first time a selection of his video and photographic works, on display in the entrance to the concert hall. Available for purchase will also be his new photo-book Sublime, his 1974 classic text Experimental Music – Cage and Beyond, sheet-music including a new collection of songs for soprano and piano, and the full MN records CD collection.
Tickets available from Cadogan Hall / 020 7730 4500
