Evening Concert: SQUADRON 3

Guildhall School of Music & Drama
SQUADRON 2008

This series of groundbreaking performances will showcase the work of cutting edge musicians from the Leadership Programme at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama. Let SQUADRON take you on a journey through an eclectic mix of sonic landscapes which draw on a diverse range of themes and presentation methods. See concerts on Tuesday 1 July 2008 and Friday 4 July 2008 also.

The evening will include:
The places in between – multi-media presentation of a collaboratively written piece influenced by Stockhausen and Japanese music exploring journeying, travelling, melodies and lines.
Squatters Rights – a new work exploring the interactions and responses individuals have to places of different inherent nature: places of empty and open space, places of flux which continually move between emptiness and fullness, and places which are permanently filled.
Also featuring Madosini, ‘The Veteran’ the Queen and muse of Mpondoland in the Transkai, South Africa. Her time-enriched skills as a composer, musician, storyteller and dancer have made her an icon among the Bundu people of the Eastern Cape.
