Two fearless performers whose musical brilliance is matched by the physical theatricality of their work. This electro-acoustic programme will bring together powerful explorations of body, voice and sound. You can expect a set that alternates from the visceral to the hypnotic; music that is both challenging and beautiful, and that draws inspiration from across artforms.

Doors open at 7.30pm.

Robert Plane is one of our top clarinettists – a regular principal with the best orchestras and constantly sought-after as a soloist and chamber musician. Robert is constantly expanding the clarinet’s repertoire, rediscovering forgotten works, masterminding major recording projects and working closely with composers. In this concert, Robert will join forces with the peerless Gould Piano Trio, three exceptional musicians, to make up a formidable quartet of pure quality.

Back by popular demand! When Eliza came to Kettle’s Yard in 2024 she captivated us with a set of works that slowly unfolded like vast musical landscapes. And now Eliza returns with a major work by Irish composer Donnacha Dennehy that obsessively revolves around simple sounds, but gradually creates a mesmerising web of complexity. Eliza will also introduce us to composers she’s developed close relationships with over the years, including the fascinating music of Mica Levi.

Doors open at 7.30pm.

Beethoven, Six Bagatelles, Op.126
