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.

SUMMARY:BILL ORCUTT + ALEXANDER TUCKER
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nBILL ORCUTT\nALEXANDER TUCKER\nMonday 13 April\nBush Hall\, 310 Uxbridge Rd\, Shepherds Bush\, London W12 7LJ\n7.30pm | £18 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/U67bfce667c6 \nBILL ORCUTT is a guitarist and composer. He has been described as “thrillingly original” (Will Ainsley\, Bandcamp Daily) as “a go-for-broke guitar improviser” (Ben Ratliff\, New York Times) “\, creating a new language (Marc Masters\, Pitchfork) whose playing would “make Derek Bailey do a double-take” (Lars Gotrich\, NPR). Orcutt tours actively\, appearing at festivals worldwide\, including Rewire (The Hague)\, Presences Electronique (Paris)\, Jazz em Agosto (Lisbon)\, Goner Fest (Memphis)\, Musique Actuelle (Victoriaville)\, Big Ears (Knoxville)\, Music Unlimited (Wels)\, Le Guess Who? (Utrecht)\, Nouveau Festival du Centre Pompidou (Paris)\, Unsound (Kraków)\, une session à Maida Vale pour BBC 3 (London) et un Tiny Desk concert pour NPR. \n2025 saw Orcutt release ‘Another Perfect Day’\, his first solo electric guitar record since 2017’s eponymous Bill Orcutt. While that eight-year gap might not seem like a ton of time on the cosmic scale\, it nonetheless represents a busy half-decade plus for Orcutt projects: a raft of improv collaborations\, an acclaimed run of chopped and looped albums on Fake Estates\, and the collision of Orcutt’s computer and guitar music on Music For Four Guitars and last year’s How to Rescue Things\, both on Palilalia. The undeniable alchemy of those latter mashups inspired not only a wider appreciation of Orcutt-as-composer\, but also the resurrection of Orcutt-as-bandleader\, as the Bill Orcutt Quartet hit the road in support of Four Guitars\, Orcutt’s first work with a proper score. ‘Another Perfect Day’ sees Orcutt building tension with short phrases\, repeated with slight variability until it seems like they’ll never stop\, finally slamming into a fresh line like the dawning valley at the crest of the mountain pass. It’s an affirmation that Orcutt is above all a lead player – angular runs scaling the heavens\, ricocheting back to ground zero before climbing again.\nhttps://billorcutt.bandcamp.com/ \nALEXANDER TUCKER returns to the guitar after spending the last few years focusing on his modular experimental techno guise MICROCORPS. Since the early 2000s\, Tucker has released solo guitar and cello-based albums on Thrill Jockey Records\, Subtext\, and ATP Recordings\, blending songs\, electronics\, strings\, vocals and extended techniques. Creating music that sits between structured songwriting\, composition\, drone\, and noise\, Tucker is also a prolific collaborator\, with projects that include tape-loop duo Imbogodom and electronic pop with Grumbling Fur and Charlemagne Palestine. More recent live collaborations include work with Lasse Marhaug\, Kenichi Iwasa\, and Elvin Brandhi. \n2026 sees Tucker melding his past work with acoustic guitar with his present explorations with modular synth systems and electronics\, processing minimal steel-string guitar into unrecognisable sonic forms through improvisation\, synthesis and electronic manipulation. Tucker’s investigations into electroacoustic and music concrete composition have led him to seek out ways to warp\, stretch and mangle his own guitar playing beyond its original form\, revelling in the sheer pleasure of transforming sound and creating imaginary and unspoken spaces. \nhttps://alexandertucker.bandcamp.com/music
