Announcing Creative Connections
NW Live Arts has announced its next concert will be called Creative Connections. It will take place on Wednesday 17 April 2024 at St John’s Waterloo.
NW Live Arts has invited five musicians to co-curate a concert, sharing their favourite music from their cultures and their careers as musicians. The result is a captivating mix of Basque folk, baroque, South American, contemporary, Central European, Indian contemporary and Middle Eastern music, along with jaw-dropping improvisation. The programme is delightfully woven together in a continuous 70-minute performance, telling stories of what brings us together in a joyful celebration of our shared humanity.
The musicians – David Zucchi (saxophone) Iñigo Mikeleiz-Berrade (accordion) Emma Purslow (violin) Attab Haddad (oud) and Kuljit Bhamra (tabla) – will explore themes of place, and connection at St John’s Waterloo this April.
Alongside the concert performance, NW Live Arts is running creative workshops with the St John’s Waterloo community, led by Aga Serugo Lugo. In these workshops, music, improvisation and storytelling will collide, culminating in a soundscape devised by the musicians and workshop attendees as equal creative partners.
Tickets for Creative Connections are on sale now.
NW Live Arts is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England with further support from The Galashan Trust and The Foyle Foundation.
