Middle Of The Road

In this blessed time of conservatism and austerity, as ‘normcore’ takes over the catwalks and homos turn hetero, three of the UK’s most provocative and irreverent performers have decided to turn their backs on all that weirdo queer shit and start toeing the party line. Life is better when we’re all the same.

‘There is nothing quite like him: bold and unique, electrifying and disarmingly humane’ TIME OUT on David Hoyle

Grand Dame of political drag David Hoyle joins forces with obnoxious little shits Bourgeois & Maurice on a musical journey through some of the most offensively ‘middle of the road’ music around, as well as some original, heartfelt compositions. They’ve tried battling against the system, now they want to join it, hug it and sing it a few lullabies.

‘Musical comedy’s answer to the Manson family’ EVENING STANDARD on Bourgeois & Maurice

Following previous one-off collaborations Middle of the Road sees the threesome unite for a whole new, full performance event, taking place at East London’s experimental cultural hub LimeWharf.

This is everything you ever wanted to happen to a James Blunt song. And more.

THREE NIGHTS ONLY!

Project Instrumental Website

Brilliant young chamber orchestra, Project Instrumental, continue their residency at LimeWharf, presenting with a thrillingly fresh programme of new and historically significant works with their straightforward, contemporary approach to art music.

If world premieres from sonorous new voice Jesse Bescoby, award-winning Timothy Cape and internationally renowned Stephen Montague weren’t temptation enough, Sound Emergents: London opens with Stravinsky’s tantalising Concerto in D. Shostakovich’s autobiographical lament, the Chamber Symphony Op. 110a, provides a powerful and moving finale.

The commission, Finding Kala, is kindly supported by a grant from the Britten Pears Foundation.

“If you’re partial to strings & things, you need Project Instrumental in your life. Awesome” – Rick Grant, TAKE Records

“Didn’t know what I was coming to, or what to expect. What an amazing surprise. So amazing!” – member of audience

Spitalfields Music Festival presents MURAL


Thursday 5 – Tuesday 10 June
MURAL installation
Free
MURAL will also be performed live with EXAUDI on Sunday 8 June.

Sunday 8 June
MURAL
3.00pm/5.00pm

EXAUDI
James Weeks director/composer
Sam Belinfante film artist

What does it mean to belong to the world?

MURAL is a multimedia investigation of the places we occupy in the world: both our domestic and intimate surroundings as well as the vast untamed spaces that extend beyond our immediate walls. The wall becomes the central image of the work – mapping, dividing or encircling a terrain – and its constituent bricks; individual pieces amassing to create a larger enclosing structure.

On entering MURAL the audience is confronted with a fragmented video wall portraying ideas of boundary, interiority and exteriority, while two separated quartets of singers will perform in parallel, surrounding the audience in sound and image. The music articulates a range of quotations ranging from essays of John Cage and poetry of Fernando Pessoa to critiques of the art of Vermeer.

Running time: 1 hour

Tom Green Septet

“Remarkable…only the very best arrangers can get a sound like that from four horns”
Evan Parker, June 2013
“Contemporary chamber jazz that is both elegant and lively, full of tightly written passages that blossom into free playing with natural ease”
Tony Benjamin, Venue Magazine Bristol, December 2013

Winter Olympics Alternative Opening Ceremony

To coincide with the launch of the Winter Olympics in Russia, we’re getting together for a knees-up and hoe down to raise money and awareness for the Peter Tatchell Foundation. Peter has campaigned tirelessly for LGBT rights both in this country and abroad since the early days of the gay rights movement, and this is our way to give something back to help him continue his fight against prejudice and hatred. Russia, as we all know, last year passed a law which effectively makes any protest, celebration, even mention of homosexuality illegal. So this is our way of saying we’re there with LGBT Russians and that we think the law is a load of bollocks.

And my, what a fucking hoot we’re going to have doing it!

Gregor Riddell @LimeWharf presents Cevanne/Crewdson, Rob Lewis/Gregor Riddell & Elliot Galvin Trio

Tickets £7 advance, £10 on the door

Cevanne/Crewdson

Cevanne is an Anglo-Armenian composer and performer from Suffolk. Her work is grounded in the British isles – digging deep into their rich soil, to find artefacts which one would not always imagine to be native. From this stance, she has written for choir, chamber ensemble, dance, sculpture, symphony orchestra, oratorio, radio drama, soloists, theatre, comedy, and more. Cevanne’s work often explores improvisation, humour, dance, and line (both narrative, and melodic). She is Composer-in-Residence at Handel House, and is inspired to adopt Handel’s open attitude to societies, and styles, of all kinds.

Hailing from the chilly North of England, Hugh ‘Crewdson’ Jones left school at the age of 16 so that he could go on a tour with his punk band supporting The Buzzcocks [The band also supported The Dead Kennedys, The Alarm and Bad Manners!]. He has played at the Southbank Centre’s lauded Ether Festival, has leaked a track – ‘Mime’ – online which was picked up for editorial on the US’s influential Fader website and has played gigs in London supporting the likes of The Invisible. He has also already worked up remixes for La Shark & Esben and the Witch, as well as unofficial remixes of the Invisible and Fourtet. Live as in the studio, Crewdson creates sound from machinery, found items, manipulated vocals and saxophone which he samples and manipulates through his idiosyncratic electronic set up, controlling his sounds with a Playstation joystick and sometimes midi motorcycle handlebars. Starting with the limited edition Dust EP, you can expect an upbeat, playful and dark concoction of electronic music, taking in influences from techno, jazz, 2-step, dubstep, your doorstep… whilst answering that question of what might happen if you threw Polar Bear, Flying Lotus, Aphex Twin and maybe even The Streets in a room together!


Gregor Riddell/Rob Lewis
Listen here
Gregor Riddell is a cellist and composer. He is a founder member of the Solstice String Quartet which has performed at major European concert halls and premiered a substantial number of works including his own, Touch-In, Touch-Out. He is also a member of Living Room In London which released its debut album on SessionWork Records in 2012 and has commissioned works by Peter Wiegold, Charlie Piper, Raymond Yiu, Milton Mermikides, Cevanne-Horrocks-Hopayian and David Ibbett. Last year he held an Artist Residency at the Banff Centre where he wrote a substantial work for cello and electronics, which he recorded last autumn with producer Rob Lewis. He is a member of the Norwegian composers collective, NMK, and involved in nu:nord for which his cello trio, Tre Voci, is resident ensemble. In January 2014 they will release their debut record on Slip Discs Records and tour the UK including a performance at Kings Place Out Hear Series. Gregor is a resident artist at new London venue LimeWharf.

Rob Lewis is a London-based producer, sound artist and musician. In addition to his work with experimental electronics, his credits include site-specific installations, theatre sound design and classical recordings with artists from around the world.


Elliot Galvin Trio

The Elliot Galvin Trio consists of Elliot on Piano, Tom McCredie on Bass and Simon Roth on drums. Playing all original material by Elliot, drawing on a broad set of influences from African Township to 20th Century classical music, and retaining a strong emphasis on improvisation to create a playful and highly original sound. The Trio came together in late 2012 and has already played across the UK in a number of prestigious venues, including their premier gig at the Vortex Club. They are also currently preparing to release their highly anticipated debut album ‘Dreamland’ early next year on the Chaos Collective label.

Elliot Galvin, Tom McCredie and Simon Roth are all rising stars on the British improvised music scene, and this ensemble sees them reach new heights.
