City of London Sinfonia

Nightfall. Moonrise. First light.

A journey through sound, sleep, and starlight.

City of London Sinfonia transforms the beautifully restored Hackney Church, Hackney’s iconic 18th-century church-turned-contemporary arts venue, into a space of shifting light and shadow for From Dusk ’til Dawn, part of its New Frontiers season.

This atmospheric programme drifts through starry skies and moonlit reflections. From William Herschel’s Symphony No. 2, written by the astronomer who discovered Uranus, to Messiaen’s ‘Interstellar Call’ and Debussy’s ‘Clair de Lune’, the music carries us through night’s quiet mysteries.

Experience bold voices like Eleanor Alberga, Hannah Kendall, and Dobrinka Tabakova, alongside Vivaldi’s haunting ‘La notte’ and Mozart’s glimmering Serenata notturna. Music made for moonlight, performed in one of London’s most immersive spaces.

Why come out? Because this isn’t music behind a screen, it’s a live, living encounter. At Hackney Church, every note resonates through timeworn stone and contemporary stillness. The night becomes sound. The dawn becomes real.

Step out into the night. Step into something extraordinary.
