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:The Art of Mini Golf - Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of rebellion and play for the curious\, the competitive\, and anyone bold enough to swing outside the lines.\nPlay your way through nine adventurous mini-golf holes\, each designed by a leading woman artist\, as you explore the game’s subversive history. \nArtist\, filmmaker and writer Miranda July (All Fours) goes ‘All Fores’ for the project. Kaylene Whiskey sets course with pop icons woven through Anangu culture. Tokyo’s Saeborg unleashes latex creatures of cartoonish menace\, Delaine Le Bas squares the circle\, and Natasha Tontey entwines speculative storytelling with mythology\, technology\, and alternative histories. Atlanta rapper BKTHERULA joins sound artist Kate Miller to make swamp flowers bloom. Australian duo Soda Jerk open an algorithmic K-hole\, and prolific photographer Pat Brassington dives headfirst. \nOnly the most audacious artists are here because mini golf itself was born of rebellion. The game was originally invented by 19th-century Scottish women who were banned from ‘real’ courses but refused to sit on the sidelines. \nPick your putter. It’s art that fills the cup.

SUMMARY:The Long Play Sessions: Simon Reynolds - Still In A Dream with Rudy Tambala
DESCRIPTION:Join us at The Long Play Sessions for an immersive and intellectually charged evening with acclaimed music critic and cultural historian Simon Reynolds\, as he discusses ‘Still in a Dream: Shoegaze\, Slackers and the Reinvention of Rock\, 1984–1994′. \nIn Still in a Dream\, Reynolds picks up where Rip It Up and Start Again left off\, tracing the underground explosion that followed post‑punk: the rise of shoegaze\, noisepop\, slacker rock and grunge. Drawing on his first-hand experience as a journalist embedded in the scene\, Reynolds captures a moment when guitar music turned inward and expansive at once — when distortion\, volume and texture became vehicles for emotion\, alienation and altered states. \nFrom the shimmering dreamworlds of Cocteau Twins and Slowdive\, to the visceral noise of Sonic Youth\, My Bloody Valentine\, Dinosaur Jr. and Pavement\, Reynolds explores how this music reflected the psychic climate of the time: youth disaffection\, political conservatism\, and the last flourish of analogue culture before the internet remade everything. Both a personal memoir and a cultural analysis\, the book is as much about how music felt as about how it sounded. \nFar more than a scene-by-scene history\, Still in a Dream examines why this era continues to echo through contemporary music\, fashion and attitudes — and how its ethos of experimentation\, withdrawal\, intensity and beauty reshaped the possibilities of rock music for decades to come. \nWhat to Expect \n\nA talk from Simon Reynolds exploring the ideas\, emotions and cultural forces behind the book\nDeep discussion of shoegaze\, underground guitar music and alternative culture from 1984–1994\nInsight into Simon’s writing process\, music journalism career and experiences documenting the era as it unfolded\nReflections on youth\, alienation\, escapism\, politics and the changing role of music media\nAudience Q&A\, offering the chance to engage directly with Reynolds on music history\, criticism and legacy\nBook signing — bring your copy or purchase one on the evening\n\nWe look forward to welcoming you to The Long Play Sessions for a rich\, reflective and exhilarating exploration of this defining period of modern music history. \nAbout The Long Play Sessions \nThis event is part of The Long Play Sessions\, ICMP’s curated series spotlighting transformative writers\, artists and cultural voices who shape the way we understand music\, identity and creative expression. Each session opens a window into the stories behind the art — blending conversation\, cultural history and lived experience.

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:The Mysterious Case of Sir Percival Lancelot and His Missing Ear
DESCRIPTION:Sir Percival Lancelot is dead. \nThe family has gathered.\nThe will is about to be read.\nAnd somewhere inside Lancelot Manor… an ear has gone missing. \nFollowing the success of last year’s Cinderella – The Elders Panto\, the Church Street Elders return to The Cockpit with a brand-new devised murder mystery full of secrets\, lies\, absurd family rivalries\, suspicious servants\, inheritance battles\, and increasingly questionable detective work. \nPart Agatha Christie parody\, part ensemble theatre experiment\, The Mysterious Case of Sir Percival Lancelot and His Missing Ear has been created through improvisation\, storytelling\, physical theatre\, and collective devising by members of Dendê Collective’s Drama for Elders programme. \nExpect dramatic revelations\, chaotic reconstructions\, hidden motives\, terrible alibis\, and a manor house full of people who may — or may not — have had something to do with Sir Percival’s untimely end. \nAnd then… there is the second death. \nUsing a playful theatrical language inspired by classic murder mysteries\, ensemble storytelling\, and highly imaginative low-fi staging\, the cast transform chairs\, bodies\, sound\, and movement into the strange and crumbling world of Lancelot Manor. \nNo two performances are likely to be exactly the same.\nCome and help solve the mystery… if you can.

SUMMARY:Pomp\, Pageantry\, and Precision: Experience the Military Musical Spectacular Live in London
DESCRIPTION:Few things in the world can match the spine-tingling thrill of a full military band in motion. The crisp\, synchronised snap of the snare drums\, the brilliant gleam of polished brass catching the evening light\, and the immaculate\, historic uniforms—it is an experience that commands your attention from the very first note. \nLondon is the undisputed global capital of ceremonial pageantry\, and this summer\, you have the chance to witness it at its absolute finest. \nOn July 8th\, 2026\, the capital will host the breathtaking Military Musical Spectacular Live. Whether you are a lifelong enthusiast of military history\, a lover of live orchestral brass\, or simply looking for a quintessential\, unforgettable London evening out\, this is an event that belongs firmly on your calendar. \nWhat to Expect at the Spectacular\nThis isn’t just a concert; it is a masterclass in discipline\, musicianship\, and visual storytelling.

It elevates the atmosphere instantly\, turning a standard gathering into a truly historic-feeling event. \nBut did you know you don’t have to wait for a national spectacular to experience this magic? \nIf you are an event planner\, corporate organiser\, or hosting a major celebration\, you can harness that same prestige for your own guests. From grand corporate galas and award ceremonies to public parades\, film premieres\, and themed events\, nothing makes an entrance quite like a live military marching band. \nThrough Music for London\, you can hire authentic\, professional Military and Marching Bands in London (Note: Insert your exact MFL Military Bands category link here).

SUMMARY:Richard III - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Following acclaimed productions in Madrid and internationally\, Argentine director Nicolás Pérez Costa presents a new London adaptation of Shakespeare’s Richard III. \nFar from a traditional staging\, this production transforms the classic tragedy into a visceral\, dark\, and deeply human contemporary theatrical experience. Performed in the round\, this physically driven reinterpretation places the audience directly inside a brutal and decaying universe where power is fought through bodies\, rhythm\, and violence. \nBrought to life by an international ensemble cast\, the show combines intense physical theatre\, live percussion\, dynamic character transformations\, and a bold Latin vision to explore the timeless mechanisms of ambition\, seduction\, and political destruction. It is a raw\, poetic\, and high-energy experience designed specifically for contemporary audiences\, theatre enthusiasts\, and lovers of bold\, visual storytelling who want to see Shakespeare re-imagined for the modern world.

SUMMARY:The Long Play Sessions : Stuart Braithwaite with Spaceships over Glasgow
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an intimate and electrifying evening with Stuart Braithwaite\, founding member of Mogwai\, as he discusses Spaceships Over Glasgow: Mogwai\, Mayhem and Misspent Youth — a raw\, funny and deeply honest memoir of music obsession\, life on the road\, and the strange magic of live sound. \nThis event forms part of The Long Play Sessions\, ICMP’s curated series celebrating artists and writers who shape how we experience and understand music culture. Each session explores the stories beneath the noise — where creativity\, identity and lived experience intersect — offering audiences a rare chance to engage directly with the people who make and document the music that defines generations. \nIn Spaceships Over Glasgow\, Braithwaite traces his journey from a music-obsessed childhood in Scotland to the global stages of one of the world’s most influential post‑rock bands. With warmth\, self‑deprecation and startling candour\, he recounts formative gigs\, life‑changing records\, chaotic tours and the friendships that sustained Mogwai through decades of relentless volume and evolution. \nSet against the backdrop of Glasgow’s fertile underground scene\, the book is both a love letter to live music and an unfiltered account of the realities of life in a band — the exhilaration\, exhaustion\, excess and uncertain balance between creativity and survival. From teenage discovery of Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine\, to tinnitus‑inducing shows and international acclaim\, Braithwaite captures what it means to build a life around sound. \nFar more than a rock memoir\, Spaceships Over Glasgow reflects on youth\, belonging\, and the ways music can serve as escape\, identity and salvation. It speaks to anyone who has ever stood in a crowd and felt their life rearranged by noise — or dreamed of stepping onto a stage and making that feeling happen for others. \nWhat to Expect \n\nAn intimate talk from Stuart\, exploring the stories\, memories and moments behind the book\nInsight into Mogwai’s journey\, Glasgow’s underground music culture\, and the realities of long‑term life in a band\nDiscussion of creativity\, obsession\, touring\, friendship and the sustaining power of loud music\nReflections on youth\, risk\, resilience and the transformative experience of live performance\nAudience Q&A\, offering the chance to engage directly with Braithwaite about writing\, music and Mogwai’s legacy\nBook signing — bring your copy or purchase one at the event\n\nWe look forward to welcoming you to The Long Play Sessions for a candid\, joyful and uncompromising evening celebrating music as a lifelong force — told by someone who has lived it\, loudly and without filter.

SUMMARY:MONUMENT: An Interactive One-Woman Comedy Show
DESCRIPTION:What are we building today — and for whom? \n\nStep into a construction site where past and present collide in this politically urgent and defiantly funny performance\, unfolding across two intertwined narratives. \n1948\, Prague: A society rebuilds after WWII\, driven to construct a monumental symbol of power. An artist is pulled into a system that demands loyalty over integrity – a story inspired by the tragic legacy of Otakar Švec and the Stalin Monument in Prague. \nPresent-day London: As Europe is heading for another war\, Bogdan\, a Polish builder and aspiring rapper\, navigates exploitation and loneliness while constructing luxury flats – the new monuments of our time. \nExpect a formally inventive blend of rap\, live comedy\, and physical theatre. This isn’t just a show to watch – it’s one to build. Audience members become fellow workers\, creating a collective experience that explores the migrant journey\, the ideology of hard work\, and the systems that shape us. \nCreated and performed by Polish-British artist Margot Przymierska\,the production is developed in collaboration with The People Speak. \nPost-show conversation \nAfter the performance\, we invite you to stay for a 20–30 minute post-show conversation led by the Czech Centre Director Tereza Šídlová. This is a chance to unpack the ideas behind the show together – from Eastern European identity and cultural memory\, to what it really costs to “make it” in today’s Europe\, and how these questions resonate in a Czech context now. \n\nTickets: \nGeneral Admission – £10 (+ Eventbrite fee)\nSupporter Ticket (artist support contribution) – £13 (+ Eventbrite fee)\nBOOK NOW

SUMMARY:Colin Manford - off The Record - Comedy
DESCRIPTION:Colin Manford returns with Off The Record- the music investigation nobody asked for\, but absolutely needed. \nA fast-paced\, storytelling stand-up show that digs into the strangest stories\, myths and mysteries hiding in the world of pop music. \nFrom iconic songs and bizarre recording sessions to misheard lyrics\, urban legends and the questionable behaviour of certain celebrities\, Colin pulls apart the moments we all think we know… and reveals the nonsense underneath. Expect detective-style breakdowns\, wild theories\, visual evidence\, audience interaction\, and a level of confidence about facts that really shouldn’t be delivered with confidence. \nFresh from packed shows across the UK\, Colin blends observational stand-up with multimedia chaos\, cartoon noir slides\, and forensic overanalysis of songs that probably don’t deserve it. It’s silly\, clever\, daft and a genuinely unique take on music-based comedy. \n

SUMMARY:Mark Thomas: 40 In Stand Up Years
DESCRIPTION:What?! Mark Thomas has been ‘standing up’ for 40 years? Impossible!! But how old does that make you…? Alas it is true; one of our oldest surviving alternative comics celebrates 40 years at the mic. \nSo\, here’s what he has done so far in numbers; performed comedy for 40 years\, won 8 awards for performing\, 4 for human rights work and 1 he invented for himself\, made 6 series of the Mark Thomas Comedy Product (Channel 4)\, written 6 books and 5 play scripts\, made 5 series of the Manifesto for Radio 4\, made 3 Dispatches for Channel 4\, sued the police (and won) 3 times\, curated and authored 2 art exhibitions with artist Tracey Moberly and had 1 Guinness World Record for holding 20 protests in 24 hours. \nSo basically expect a taster menu of government and personal mayhem\, jokes\, rants and a personal state of the nation broadcast as he tries to turn ‘what the f*ck is going on’ into a cogent hour of stand-up.
