Matthew Barley - Light Stories
Thursday 22 May 2025 | 7:00pm doors, 7:45 performance
(Post concert talk starts 9:15pm)
Metronome, Nottingham
£16:50
British cellist Matthew Barley curates a soundtrack, featuring music from composers such as Anna Meredith and Bach, alongside his own new compositions. These pieces are seamlessly connected by improvisations and electronics, creating a theatrical experience that immerses the audience.
A deeply personal journey, Light Stories weaves together music, projected imagery, and electronics to narrate Matthew's teenage story of trauma and recovery. It explores the transformative power of music to heal, console, and uplift.
Inspired by the 'Voyage and Return' plot from Christopher Booker's exploration of timeless narrative archetypes, the 70-minute programme highlights resilience and growth in the face of adversity.
There is a post-concert talk after the performance.
