A trio of composer–performer–improvisers, miré invite you into their world with a shadowy, mesmerising yet playful and virtuosic programme of music from their debut EP ‘Revelries’ on Delphian Records. Through a series of their own compositions alongside improvisatory works, soprano Héloïse Werner, pianist/organist Kit Downes and cellist Colin Alexander provoke, listen and react to create a soundworld like no other.
Soprano/composer Héloïse Werner, pianist/organist/composer Kit Downes and cellist/composer Colin Alexander meet to become miré: a trio where three distinct musical minds collide, entangle, melt and reform. Their own compositions become the subject of focused experimentation, with ideas stretched and pulled apart before a new collaborative way forward is found. Combining virtuosic vocals, bright and colourful organ textures and mesmerising cello techniques, miré represent the coming together of long-time musical collaborators whose shared intuition gives rise to a soundscape that is fluid, exploratory and deeply immersive. ‘We listened, motionless, absorbed’ The Observer
This performance features tracks from their EP (out 16 Jan 26), alongside improvisatory interludes that lead the audience through a 70-minute programme of continuous and ever-changing new music. A circular seating plan, with the trio at the centre of Kings Place Hall Two, will create an intense and thrilling listening environment — every nuance heard before resonant, immersive harmonies flood the room.
This event will last approximately 70 mins, with no interval.
