Friday 22 August: Germ Studies
Germ Studies brings an evening of musical transformation, through sound and melodic experimentation. Drawing on the language of contemporary electro-acoustic improvisation, Abrahams and Cooper approach each performance as an open-ended investigation – testing the limits of their instruments and the acoustics of the space itself.

Friday 17 October: Maissa Alameddine
Maissa Alameddine invites audiences to experience the beauty, inheritance and resilience of the voice. In this performance, be transformed and transported by the power of song as a vessel of memory and an instrument of diversity.
