Freedom To Roam: The Rhythms of Migration

Friday 25 February 2022

This event has passed.

Freedom To Roam: The Rhythms of Migration is flautist Eliza Marshall’s humanitarian and environmental project, first conceived of during a visit to the Inner Hebrides in 2018.

The result is a beautifully crafted journey in music and film, exploring themes such as climate change, conflict, restriction and empathy.

The event begins with a screening of the documentary film from award-winning Director Nicholas Jones (A Greenlander, You Are Here). Marshall is then joined by album co-writers Catrin Finch (harp), Jackie Shave (violin) and Dónal Rogers (guitars/bass) plus special guests including Kuljit Bhamra MBE (tabla) and Robert Irvine (cello), to play the Freedom To Roam album in full – featuring bespoke video by acclaimed video designer Amelia Kosminsky.

“a totally mesmeric… experience of transcendent quality, in which African, Celtic and Indian influences coalesce as classical fuses with folk, with just a hint of electronic”

“A cinematic soundtrack to the major issue of the decade”
