About This Event

Towards Renewal is a new orchestral piece. Episodic in construction, it navigates a tapestry of sound worlds to consider what it would be like to move from our present experience with the global pandemic, to a world without Covid 19.

There are dark, reflective, agitated and sometimes introspective moments in the score, as well as much more animated, joyous, hopeful and positive visions in this score. The sound world of the score draws on wide ranging musical influences.

Philip Herbert says. 鈥淭hese sound worlds are linked to visions, which are connected to our priorities and how we choose to deal with Covid. This in turn holds the keys of life and death, our happiness, and our futures, as we progress towards a renewal of our life experiences, with or without Covid.鈥

Philip Herbert is a London born, award winning British Composer with eclectic music interests. He has written choral music, chamber music, music for film, dance and for the concert hall.

This is a world premiere of Towards Renewal, which has been commissioned by the 麻豆约拍 Concert Orchestra and will be performed by them for the PRS New Music Biennial 2022.

Tickets are free but must be booked in advance.
