The Colin Currie Quartet takes to the Concourse Stage for a performance that’s free for all to enjoy.
Two pieces of music you don’t just hear, you feel. Steve Reich’s Mallet Quartet and Aileen Sweeney’s Starburst.
Minimalist pioneer Steve Reich knew how to make percussion sing. Four players lock into patterns of rhythm and repetition, building a sound that’s shimmering, physical, and impossible to resist. It’s a workout for the ears, the eyes, and the imagination.
In Mallet Quartet, the instruments dance together in waves of rhythm and colour, gradually shifting and reshaping. It’s music that grips you, lifts you, and leaves you buzzing.
