Events at Kings Place

  • Alehouse

    Music

    18 Dec 2009 to 18 Dec 2009

    In the 17th century, many Alehouses were turned into Musick-Houses where one might meet Henry Purcell and other composers presenting new works, or just duelling with local folk-musicians. Norwegian wizards of baroque and folk music revisit this repertoire with spectacular results.

     
  • Bartok: Mikrokosmos 1

    Music

    10 Dec 2009 to 10 Dec 2009

    Performed with a dancer Megan Saunders and live interactive film, this staged performance of Bartk's seminal collection for the piano, Mikrokosmos, was greeted with great acclaim in 2008. Composed between 1926 and 1939, it was described by the composer as 'a synthesis of all the musical and technical problems', and these playful, beautiful and exciting works encapsulate Bartk's stunning compositional sound world.
