Event information

Join us at this unique salon concert, for an evening of mesmeric voices and instruments in a beautiful private venue. Six performers will create beautiful harmonies, soundscapes and improvisations with the voices of Ben & Dom, Paula & Cerys and the keyboards and textures of Chris Long & Tim Walker.

Ben & Dom are a singing duo from south London. "Ben takes the high notes and Dom takes the low notes (most of the time)..." The intricate blend of their harmonies comes from a close friendship and shared love of singing together. They weave their voices around songs old and new, performing original material alongside new interpretations of folk songs. Their lyrics touch on friendship, nature and what it means for two men to sing together in this modern day.

Paula and Cerys are singers who explore ancient and contemporary song and chant, connecting the music of Hildegarde of Bingen to contemporary folk sounds. Reinventions of medieval and traditional song blend with improvisations exploring the beauty of harmony.

Chris & Tim are ‘sonic adventurers’ who, for this event, utilise keyboards, lapsteel guitar and effects processors to create expansive transcendental soundscapes. Chris works as a pianist and improvisor in a range of styles and contexts, ranging from classical and ambient keyboard to found sound and collage; Tim is a producer, sound engineer and guitarist who, for this event, explores Americana vibes on the lapsteel and soundscaping with an array of effects processors.

Together these 6 artists create a unique evening of music that will touch the soul, elevate the mind and warm the cockles of your heart!
