SUMMARY:Summer Music in City Churches – ‘Around the World’ – Concerts in the Square Mile
DESCRIPTION:A nine-day celebration of music in the City of London \nSet in the heart of London’s historic Square Mile\, Kestrel Music’s nine-day festival\, Summer Music in City Churches\, returns with a world-class roster of artists taking a musical voyage ‘Around the World’. Hosted across five atmospheric\, acoustically rich churches\, this year’s theme explores music inspired by cities\, landscapes and traditions. From traditional song and jazz arrangements\, to lush choral harmonies and orchestral favourites\, the programme celebrates sounds of town and country\, both at home and abroad. \nGuest artists are drawn from the finest musicians and collaborative partnerships performing internationally today\, including Rachel Nicholls and Michael Dussek\, Lucy Parham with Juliet Stevenson\, Mark Bebbington with Alistair McGowan\, and Iain Farrington’s jazz trio. Joining them will be multi-talented duo Eleanor Grant and Gus McQuade\, and young singers from Hackney Choral. A wealth of chamber music further enriches the programme\, with lunchtime performances by Brother Tree Sound\, Tier3 Trio\, Cassatt Trio\, and Sonas Quartet. \nOpening the festival\, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Gergely Madaras conjure the Mediterranean warmth of Spain and Italy in works by Rossini\, Ravel and Mendelssohn. They are joined by guitarist Jack Hancher\, 2022 Royal Overseas League Gold Medalist and EuroStrings Artist\, as soloist in Rodrigo’s evocative Concierto de Aranjuez. \nThere are opportunities to hear the City of London Choir led by Daniel Hyde on two contrasting occasions performances; as part of a Festival Choral Evensong in the grand tradition of British cathedrals\, and to celebrate traditional song rooted in the land – from George Shearing’s jazz settings to Elgar in Bavaria\, in the festival’s delightful finale\, ‘Islands and Highlands’. \nSummer Music in City Churches was founded in 2018\, presenting beautiful music to engage\, divert and inspire\, in ancient and architecturally stunning churches in London’s Square Mile. Standing cheek by jowl with City offices\, these churches are glorious settings in which to listen and reflect: oases of history\, beauty and peace amidst the 24-7 hurly-burly of City life. \nFurther information and how to book \nFull programme\, venues\, timings and ticket sales can be found on the website. \nTicket prices range from £15 to £35\, with half-price discounts available for students and those under 25. For those wishing to attend multiple events\, a festival season ticket provides excellent value at £120. \n(Photo of Royal Philharmonic Orchestra by Ben Wright)

SUMMARY:Carey Tan Original Symphonic Works Concert
DESCRIPTION:Winner of both King’s and Music Scholarships at Eton College\, Carey Tan brings his original symphonic music with London City Philharmonic Orchestra. \n12 international composition awards\, Epic symphonic music exploring nature\, war\, AI and the future of humanity. \nRoyal College of Music · Amaryllis Fleming Concert Hall\n21 June 2026 · 14:00 \nA CONCERT ABOUT OUR TIME \nOn 21 June 2026\, a concert devoted entirely to the original symphonic works of Carey Tan will take place at the Royal College of Music — an afternoon that asks\, with urgency and imagination\, what the modern world sounds like when transformed into music. \nThis is far more than a showcase of precocious talent. It is a full-length symphonic portrait by a 12-year-old composer whose music engages directly with some of the defining questions of our age: nature\, war\, artificial intelligence\, and the future of humanity. \nPerformed by the London City Philharmonic Orchestra\, with Carey himself on stage throughout — as pianist\, marimbaist\, and the artistic voice behind every note. \nABOUT THE COMPOSER \nCarey Tan is a 12-year-old composer and multi-instrumentalist\, and a recipient of both the King’s Scholarship and Music Scholarship at Eton College. He has long focused on the creation of large-scale orchestral works\, distinguished by expansive structures\, clear narrative direction\, and profound intellectual depth. His music transforms philosophical reflection\, scientific imagination\, and a concern for contemporary realities into a symphonic language of striking modern expressiveness. With a creative vision of remarkable maturity and individuality\, he is increasingly attracting attention within the international classical music world. \nABOUT THE ORCHESTRA \nThe London City Philharmonic Orchestra presents symphonic and operatic repertoire in major UK and international venues. The orchestra is committed to supporting contemporary music and new large-scale works\, regularly collaborating with emerging composers and soloists. \nOlsi Qinami is Principal Conductor and Music Director of the London City Philharmonic Orchestra\, Conductor with the National Radio Television Orchestra of Albania\, and Professor of Conducting at the University of Arts in Tirana. He conducts widely across Europe and maintains a strong commitment to contemporary orchestral repertoire. \nTickets:  https://careytan.eventbrite.co.uk

SUMMARY:What Nature Tells Me – Orchestra for the Earth
DESCRIPTION:What Nature Tells Me\n\n\nAlpine Tour Launch Concert\n\n\n\n\nSaturday 20 June 2026 · 7.30pm \nSt John’s Waterloo\, SE1 8TY \nPublic booking is open. \nPrice – Pay what you can (suggested: £15) \nOrchestra for the Earth launches its 2026 Alpine Tour\, What Nature Tells Me\, with a London concert at St John’s Waterloo on Saturday 20 June\, before travelling by train and coach to Austria for a series of performances and education projects in places closely connected to Gustav Mahler’s life and music. \nNow in its ninth year\, the Alpine Tour has become one of the orchestra’s defining projects: an ongoing exploration of the relationship between music\, landscape and listening\, centred on Mahler and the Alpine environments in which much of his music was conceived.\nThe 2026 programme\, What Nature Tells Me\, traces a single musical arc through Mahler’s life\, from the freshness and folk-like early songs to the profound stillness of ‘Der Abschied’ (‘The Farewell) from Das Lied von der Erde (‘The Song of the Earth’). The London concert features\nrising British baritone Michael Lafferty\, with Mahler’s works arranged for chamber orchestra by conductor John Warner. \nThe programme also includes the world premiere of Eat Your Rage\, a new commission by London-based composer Zhenyan Li\, whose work has been performed by ensembles including the London Symphony Orchestra and Ensemble Modern. The commission is a response to Mahler’s musical evocations of nature and forms part of OE’s ongoing commitment to placing new music alongside established repertoire within the same artistic and environmental context. \nFollowing the London launch\, the orchestra travels to Austria from 22–26 June\, including a performance at the Gustav Mahler Festival in Steinbach am Attersee\, where Mahler spent several summers composing\, and a concert on an open-air stage in Steinach am Brenner\, another\nplace closely associated with his summer retreats. When Bruno Walter visited Mahler in Steinbach in 1896\, he marvelled at the surrounding landscape. Mahler replied simply: “No need to look around — I have already composed it all.” The Alpine Tour returns that idea to its source\, placing the music back into dialogue with the\nenvironments that helped shape it. \nMarina Mahler\, Founding Patron of Orchestra for the Earth\, said: “It is deeply moving to see my grandfather’s music brought back into the landscapes that inspired it\, and to see young people included in that experience. This kind of thoughtful\, living engagement with Mahler’s work is both true to its origins and urgently relevant now.” \nWhat Nature Tells Me takes place at St John’s Waterloo\, London\, on Saturday 20 June 2026 at 7.30pm. \nLondon is the home to several dynamic String Ensembles\, including soloists and String Quartets. They are available for hire from Music for London.

SUMMARY:Alison Cotton + Ecka Mordecai Concert
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nALISON COTTON\nECKA MORDECAI\nWednesday 1 July\nThe Old Church\, Church St\, Stoke Newington\, London\, N16 9ES\n7.30pm | £15 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/z09756e9c72e \nALISON COTTON is a London-based composer\, vocalist\, and multi-instrumentalist whose music centres on viola\, harmonium\, and layered vocal drones. Originally from Sunderland\, she first emerged in the UK underground in bands including Saloon\, The Eighteenth Day of May\, and more recently\, The Left Outsides before beginning her solo career in 2018. Her debut\, All Is Quiet at the Ancient Theatre introduced her long-form\, place-inspired approach to composition. This was followed with Only Darkness Now and The Portrait You Painted of Me\, both acclaimed for their immersive atmospheres and emotional depth. All three albums appeared in The Quietus’ End of Year lists\, with Only Darkness Now topping their New Weird Britain chart and The Portrait You Painted of Me was also Folk Record of the Month in The Guardian. \nIn 2024\, Cotton released Engelchen\, a work inspired by the lives of Ida and Louise Cook and their efforts to help refugees escape Nazi Germany. The album deepened her interest in narrative composition\, blending historical research with her distinctive drone-based sound. Her records have been released by Rocket Recordings\, Feeding Tube Records\, Cardinal Fuzz\, Bloxham Tapes and Clay Pipe Music. Cotton continues to explore drone\, experimental folk\, and narrative forms\, establishing herself as a singular voice in contemporary experimental music. For this show Cotton will be playing music from a new album and will be accompanied by Mark Nicholas on percussion\, harmonium and synths. \nECKA MORDECAI is an artist based in London. Situated between sonic\, performative and olfactory disciplines\, her work is driven by sensation: entwining cello\, horsehair harp\, voice\, eggflute\, scent and improvisation into time-based objects expressive of emotional complexity.

SUMMARY:British Youth Music Theatre - Frankenstein
DESCRIPTION:Fear spreads fast\, but judgment builds terrifying momentum. \nThis visceral new musical adaptation of Frankenstein rips into society’s gaze: how do we decide who is dangerous\, who is worthy\, and who is denied humanity altogether? Fast‑paced and drenched in tension\, it hurtles through a world where snap judgements turn lethal and rejection becomes a force of its own. \nPerformed by a ferocious cast of young performers\, this production never slows to catch its breath. Scenes snap by with cinematic intensity\, driven by an urgent\, propulsive score\, sharp jump scares and bold theatrical set pieces that keep audiences on edge. \nWritten by Victoria Gimby (Writer)\, Jimmy Jewell (Composer) and Nick Stimson (Lyricist)\, this adaptation exposes the violence of judgment itself. \nRelentless and unsettling\, Frankenstein is a gripping theatrical experience that leaves no room to look away.

SUMMARY:Gothic Opera presents: Die Rheinnixen
DESCRIPTION:Unconventional opera company Gothic Opera returns to Battersea Arts Centre this Halloween\, this time with the UK staged premiere of Die Rheinnixen (The Nixies of the Rhine)\, an unjustly neglected\, Romantic work by Jacques Offenbach. \nDie Rheinnixen\, which is Offenbach’s first take on grand opera\, encompasses the growing nationalism of its time\, as well as the genre’s fascination with the supernatural. Gothic Opera is delighted to be staging this horror story for the first time in the UK. \nIn the capable hands of the award-winning international stage director Max Hoehn\, the evocative crumbling architecture of Battersea Arts Centre’s Grand Hall will be transformed into the time of the Weimar Republic\, a period of nationalism and unease. \nIn a bold production that will speak to our current times\, Gothic Opera will be joined by exciting conductor Hannah von Wiehler\, who has a very busy career across Europe. Leon Haxby\, the young composer whose previous work for the company was praised in Opera magazine for its “haunting magic” and “compassionate insight\,” has created a new chamber orchestration of the opera for seven instruments. A cast of talented singers will bring the characters and story to life. \nDie Rheinnixen performance details:\n30th October\, 7.30pm\n31st October\, 7.30pm\n1st November\, 7.30pm\n2nd November\, 5.00pm \nSung in German with English surtitles.
