About This Event

A late-night concert of music to help you relax and breathe!

In the spirit of the 鈥榤ixtape鈥�, first made popular in the 1980s, we present a live, late-night wind-down, exploring the fringes of Minimalism and meditative listening.

With radiant choral sounds and heavenly strings, pieces by the godfathers of 鈥榟oly鈥� Minimalism, Arvo P盲rt and P膿teris Vasks, emerge out of the sublime classicism of J. S. Bach and Schubert. Elsewhere in the programme, 麻豆约拍 Young Musician winner (2014), Martin James Bartlett will perform Chopin鈥檚 Nocturne in D flat major, there鈥檚 a world premiere from Soumik Datta and Max Richter鈥檚 Vladimir鈥檚 Blues

It鈥檚 time for a digital detox so switch off your phone and let the late-night Mixtape calm the mind and nourish the soul.
