Description

**Experience a new dimension to music in a double bill featuring a performance from Liam Byrne and Cleek Schrey, alongside new work from cellist Peter Gregson.**

Composer and cellist Peter Gregson’s new work for cello, synthesisers and string ensemble, developed in collaboration with Brett Cox and Aurora Orchestra, uses the form of the building to bring the audience inside the music.

Meanwhile, viola da gamba player Liam Byrne and fiddler Cleek Schrey, both rooted in historical music traditions, join forces with a performance blending composition, improvisation and electronic music, building multi-dimensional soundscapes in real-time. Using a viola da gamba and hardanger d’amore (violin with sympathetic strings), they explore time and space, transforming the Queen Elizabeth Hall with atmospheric, resonant sound.

Concrete Voids, conceived by Southbank Centre Sound Technician Tony Birch, is a custom-built system of over 80 hidden speakers, turning the Queen Elizabeth Hall into a 3D sound instrument. It allows artists to manipulate sound throughout the space, creating rich, immersive experiences.

Presented by Southbank Centre.
