Hannah Kendall Vera Anna Meredith Honeyed Words Carmen Ho The Way I See Steve Reich Different Trains Bristol Ensemble performs an intriguing programme of contemporary works in the unique setting of Bristol 1904 Arts Club. Steve Reich’s earlier work had frequently used tape, looped and played back at different speeds. However, Different Trains was a novel experiment, using recorded speech as a source for melodies. The recorded speech that forms the basis for Different Trains is taken from interviews with people in the United States and Europe about the years leading up to, during, and immediately after World War II. We also feature three leading UK female composers - Hannah Kendall, Anna Meredith and Carmen Ho - all with distinctive styles and unique voices. Tickets £20. Seating is unreserved. We are grateful to the Vaughan Williams Foundation for its support of this event. Information Source: Bristol Ensemble | eventbrite
