Quiet Games & Improvisation

Poster for A Curious NightI will be performing/appearing/being at A Curious Night at the Nip & Tipple in Whalley Range the evening of Monday 13th September. Put to­gether by com­poser Nina Whiteman and per­form­ance artist Michael Mayhew, it will in­clude an ec­lectic range of per­form­ances, hap­pen­ings and a ‘curious ve­get­able com­pet­i­tion’, spurred on by Nabokov’s sug­ges­tion that ‘curi­osity is in­sub­or­din­a­tion in its purest form’. My con­tri­bu­tions will in­clude an audi­ence im­pro­visa­tion piece with elec­tronic at­mo­sphere, titled Quiet Games, and an im­pro­vised per­form­ance on the cello. Come along, it should be intriguing.
