Unquiet is a new music series for the brave and the curious.
Carmen Villain performs the world premiere of a new work live with the Manchester Camerata Ensemble; and Robert Ames and Ben Corrigan present CARBS, taking inspiration from their history of collaborations between electronic and classical music to create a sound that’s both cinematic and danceable, built on lush harmony, catchy patterns and driving rhythms that form an outer space trance.
Plus works by Bryce Dessner, AFRODEUTSCHE, Hildur Guðnadóttir, Philip Glass, and Mica Levi.
“It doesn’t get much better than this”
– The Independent on Manchester Camerata“Robert Ames is a super-connector in modern music”
– The Guardian“A triumph of quiet beauty”
– The Fader on Carmen Villain
Commissioned by Manchester Camerata and NEWFORM and curated by Robert Ames, with thanks to Composer Magazine and co-commissioners Norwich Arts Centre.
