SUMMARY:Music Hath No Borders - South African Buskaid Ensemble in Concert - 21.08.26
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a magical fundraising concert with ten members of the internationally renowned South African Buskaid Ensemble – a performance of live classical music from Handel and Elgar to township Kwela music. \nThis is a poignant venue for Buskaid: Buskaid’s Founder\, Rosemary Nalden\, is the daughter of the late Charles Nalden CBE\, one of Coram’s most distinguished foundlings. The Buskaid musicians are themselves no strangers to hardship: like Coram\, Buskaid offers transformative opportunities for less advantaged young people. \nFor this musical celebration\, Rosemary has chosen music to link both charities\, including the Chaconne from Terpsichore by Handel\, Coram’s most famous benefactor\, and Elgar’s Sospiri\, honouring Rosemary’s father\, an accomplished harpist who loved the music of Edward Elgar. The concert will end with a rousing burst of township ‘Kwela’ music\, arranged by the Buskaid musicians themselves. \nTickets and Timings \nTickets can be booked on Eventbrite. \nAll tickets include a welcome drink\, and private access to the Foundling Museum‘s exhibition\, including the special exhibition display\, 300 Years of the ‘Rival Queens’: Handel’s 1726 Opera Season. \n6 pm: Access to the Foundling Museum for all guests. \n7 pm-9 pm: Concert with interval. \nAbout Buskaid \nThe Buskaid Music School was founded by Rosemary Nalden in 1997 in response to requests from the less privileged local community in Diepkloof Soweto. At its inception\, it comprised just 15 children; its current membership stands at 82. To meet this demand\, in 2002 Buskaid initiated a teacher-training course for all its students; all the musicians playing tonight are employed by Buskaid as highly-skilled string teachers. \nThe Buskaid Ensemble is world-renowned for its high-performance standards and its innate grasp of musical style\, and as a result\, has undertaken 28 international tours to Europe and the Americas. It is the only African orchestra to have performed at the BBC Proms. \nThe Ensemble has collaborated with many distinguished artists such as Sir John Eliot Gardiner\, Melvyn Tan\, Steven Isserlis and Karl Jenkins. It has performed in the presence of numerous dignitaries\, notably the late Nelson Mandela\, Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II\, King Charles III\, and Michelle Obama. \nProgramme \nJean-Philippe Rameau – Air pour les Guerriers; Entrée De Polymnie; Contredanses I & II \nHenry Purcell – Fairest Isle; Rondeau; If Love’s a Sweet Passion; Chaconne \nEdward Elgar – Sospiri (Sighs) \nJean Sibelius – Impromptu \nGeorge Frideric Handel – Terpsichore HWV 8b: Chacconne \nKwela\, Afro-jazz and Afro-pop (Arr. Buskaid musicians) \nBook Classical String Ensembles for Events in the UK via Music for London.

SUMMARY:Linda Smith & Band + Trash Kit  + Stuart Moxham
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nLINDA SMITH & BAND\nTRASH KIT\nSTUART MOXHAM\nThursday 20 August\nThe Lexington\, 96-98 Pentonville Rd\, Angel\, London\, N1 9JB\n7.30pm | £14 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/X7d766a04577 \nLINDA SMITH is a pioneer of home recording who self-released her music originally on cassette starting in 1987. In the early 90’s\, indie labels Slumberland and Harriet Records expanded her reach with the release of two seven inch eps. Recently\, Brooklyn label Captured Tracks has reissued two complete albums on vinyl\, and she has begun to tour in the US and internationally for the first time. Upset The Rhythm released a recent split single between Smith and The Smashing Times last year too. Paste magazine called Linda Smith “a hidden treasure of America’s pop underground”\, while Jangle Pop Hub has written that “essentially this is the best bedroom pop you are ever likely to hear\, directly from an age that did not really know what to do with it”. For this rare UK show Linda will be joined by her live band. \nhttps://lindasmith2.bandcamp.com/ \nTRASH KIT are Ray Aggs (guitar\, vocals)\, Rachel Horwood (drums\, vocals) and Clémentine March (bass). Three deeply creative individuals who play in a multitude of other groups including Bas Jan and Sacred Paws\, not to mention their solo outings. Their songs\, once succinct\, patchwork post-punk numbers of an honest diary-like nature\, now tussle more with long-form songwriting\, expeditious polyphony and cascades of sung-spoke vocals. Although Trash Kit have their forebears in bands like Sleater Kinney\, The Ex and The Raincoats\, their sound is still very much their own take on facing forwards and relies as much on the naturalism of an internalised folk music as on their sincerity of vision. Since forming in 2009\, Trash Kit have released three albums for Upset The Rhythm and a selection of singles. Trash Kit’s approach to life as with music is one of openness\, inclusion and potential\, and their most recent album ‘Horizon’ has this in dutiful abundance. \nhttps://upsettherhythm.bandcamp.com/album/horizon \nSTUART MOXHAM requires little introduction. Few artists arrive as compellingly yet elusively as did Stuart Moxham upon the startling debut of Young Marble Giant’s sole studio album\, Colossal Youth (Rough Trade\, 1980). Initial excitement was thrust upon the young Alison Statton\, who sang songs written by Stuart with a couple of exceptions. The unaffected tone of her voice was in steep contrast to the typical goings-on in that still quite punk time\, but it was what she sang that fully sold it. Moxham’s lyrics were both intensely personal and woefully oblique. There seemed to be a sort of story in there. After those YMG days\, Moxham worked on a project called The G!st and released an album and several singles also on Rough Trade. Since the mid-80s Moxham has focused mainly on solo acoustic work\, releasing 17 albums to date\, including one by songwriting duo Moxham & Halliday. Stuart Moxham is a composer of the upper echelon of innate talent who combines avant-garde ideas with deceptively forthright personal lyrics\, solid hooks\, ambience and vaguely off-centre instrumentation which defies the casual marketplace as confoundingly as it ever did to the underground. Last year Tiny Global Productions released Moxham’s most recent album ‘Winter Sun’\, featuring Linda Smith on backing vocals.\nhttps://stuartmoxham.bandcamp.com/

SUMMARY:Baroque Bridges - Baroque and Early Classical Music Concert

SUMMARY:Nature Morte: The Extermination of Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:Nature Morte: The Extermination of Ukraine is the result of extensive research by British artist Piers Secunda. \nApproaching the deliberate destruction of cultural history and national identity through the depiction of traditional Ukrainian dishes and their ingredients\, at first sight Nature Morte is an exhibition of still lifes. Based on photographs taken by Secunda during visits to Ukraine in 2024 and 2026\, the paintings were made with ink he produced from charcoal gathered in Kharviv\, the site of the first Ukrainian Government building destroyed by Russia’s invasion in 2022. \nArranged as pyramids to reflect the power structures behind the kidnapping and forced military training of Ukranian children\, and the hierarchies behind the targeted bombing and systematic looting of cultural artefacts\, the paintings act as portals to an archive of evidence. Reached via QR codes\, the names and faces of the perpetrators are presented alongside extensive supporting material. \nThe exhibition is complemented by a map of more than five thousand points of damage to cultural sites recorded across Ukraine\, and a 40-minute documentary by Secunda’s long-term collaborator David Miller. \n  \nFor more details\, click HERE

SUMMARY:The Boy in the Ocean
DESCRIPTION:The Boy in the Ocean is a raw and intimate new play exploring the aftermath of sexual assault through fragmented memory\, movement\, and storytelling. Performed primarily as a one-person piece\, with a movement ensemble in support\, the play follows a young man as he attempts to make sense of his memories and navigate what comes after trauma. \nBlending naturalistic dialogue with physical theatre\, the piece moves between past and present\, reflecting the often disjointed reality of memory and healing. \nDeveloped from personal experience and taking inspiration from other true stories\, the play approaches difficult subject matter with honesty\, contributing to conversations around male experiences of sexual assault that are often underrepresented on stage. \nContent warnings: Themes of sexual assault\, trauma\, and strong language.

SUMMARY:Unwriting the Artist’s Statement | Online Workshop with Elle Reynolds
DESCRIPTION:‘Unwriting the Artist’s Statement’ is a focused\, playful online workshop centred on conversation\, making\, and discovering your own voice. \nThe session invites you to abscond from International Art English and respond directly to your work. Moving away from the critical language often used to address contemporary art\, the workshop proposes different protocols for speaking about your practice to the world.  \nThrough a series of guided prompts\, improvisation\, and gentle exercises\, participants will work with revision\, association\, and a deliberate quality of randomness to develop ways of using their own voice. The focus is on speaking through the work rather than separating language from practice. \nThe workshop is hosted by IMT Gallery and led by artist and educator Elle Reynolds\, whose practice works through collaborative processes\, storytelling\, and material experimentation. \nFor makers\, artists\, writers\, anti-writers\, poets\, curators at any stage of their practice\, and anyone interested in finding alternative ways to speak about their work. It is especially useful if you are preparing portfolios\, applications\, or exhibitions\, or if you simply want your language to feel more natural and connected to what you do. \nPlaces are limited — the workshop takes place on Sunday 16 August\, 3-5pm (BST). \nFollow the link below to learn more and book. \nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/guest-house-unwriting-the-artists-statement-online-workshop-tickets-1992700479777

SUMMARY:Set Menu - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Friday night. Food is ready\, drinks are cold\, cutlery is set. Max is primed to throw the perfect dinner party. Nothing but perfection will do; nothing else has worked. After a hundred attempts\, he knows exactly what to do and say. \nHours later\, the guests leave satisfied\, as Max waits for the clock to set him free. This time for sure\, he’s earned a tomorrow. Set Menu begins 600 days later. Max has failed to escape so many times that he’s lost all sense of time and himself. \nThe clock resets\, the guests forget\, and he begins again. \nOne particularly awful night\, he decides to reset the night early. When he wakes to try again\, something’s different. He’s lost a pen. The plan? Simple. Chaos. He’s going to beat whatever is keeping him trapped by making the worst dinner party ever. With exceptional knowledge of the house’s contents and the guests’ psyches\, he’ll take on the role of a twisted puppeteer. The food is burnt\, the drinks are spiked\, the cutlery is sharpened. \nAs anarchy reaches its peak\, Max is confronted with a terrifying truth: one guest was never supposed to be there. And knows more than they let on.

SUMMARY:Dance Again
DESCRIPTION:Dance Again follows Noa through one night at a music festival — a psychedelic celebration of love and unity that collapses into a massacre. \nThe play explores an unfolding terror attack from the perspective of a brain under the influence of mind-expanding drugs. Told through the distorted lens of LSD and guided by a live DJ who sculpts the atmosphere in real time\, the play oscillates between ecstatic peaks and traumatic episodes\, fracturing Noa’s reality until she can no longer tell trip from truth. All while confronting the vanishing of her partner\, her friends\, the very idea the dance floor represents. \nWhat follows is a reckoning with irreversible loss and the question of whether joy can ever be reclaimed. \nBased on real events\, Dance Again is a love letter to rave and festival culture\, and a confrontation with terror choosing it as battlefield — a memorial\, a rave\, and a refusal. \nHow can you dance again? \nGet your tickets HERE
