A cutting-edge, experimental ensemble is set to enthral audiences in Liverpool this March. Manchester Collective will be playing The Tung Auditorium, bringing their innovative, boundary-pushing live show to one of the city’s most exciting new venues. “one minute, the sound vibrates through you, your hairs pulled on end. The next: a blissful calm descends.”
The Collective will perform Ben Nobuto’s SERENITY 2.0 – a glitched-out collage of frenzied strings, percussion and samples. Transcending into the eclectic soundscapes of prolific musician and composer Nabihah Iqbal’s What Psyche Felt – Nabihah’s first commission for string quartet and electronics – the Collective will be given its world premiere.
Musician and DJ Nabihah Iqbal has a similarly eclectic approach to art and music. Her work takes her everywhere, from Boiler Room raves to the Turner Prize. What Psyche Felt, Nabihah’s first classical commission for string quartet and electronics, will be given its world premiere by the Collective.The evening will also comprise of works from GRAMMY-winner and band member of the National, Bryce Dessner.
Ben Nobuto’s SERENITY 2.0 is a glitched-out collage of frenzied strings, percussion and samples. It cycles restlessly through Japanese pop, news anchors and vocal-fried YouTubers. And in what’s set to be truly memorable finale to the show, Eric Prydz’s colossal house anthem Opus, will be reimagined into something truly unique.
