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:Anonymous 11780 - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Anonymous 11780\, written and directed by Hila Sedighi\, was created during the days of deep sorrow and unrest in Iran. \n“A story of five decades of brutal repression in a land\, emerging from the days of bloodshed on the 8th and 9th of January…” \nThis eight-episode theatrical work invites the audience to witness fragments of life\, memory\, and loss through a poetic and narrative structure. Moving between intimate personal moments and collective historical memory\, the piece reflects on violence\, grief\, and the emotional weight carried across generations.\nAt its core\, the work honors the stories of eight individuals who lost their lives during the events of 18 and 19 Dey (8th and 9th of January)\, offering a contemplative and emotionally charged exploration of loss\, identity\, resistance\, and remembrance. Through live performance\, poetic language\, and visual storytelling\, Anonymous 11780 creates a space where personal testimony and collective memory intersect.

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:REJECTS - Artworks by the Royal Academy
DESCRIPTION:REJECTS: A Celebration of Overlooked Artworks by the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. \nNow in its fourth year and previously featured in The BBC\, The Guardian\, and The Art Newspaper\, REJECTS is back this June with a brand-new line-up of artists and artworks that didn’t make it into the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. Each year around 18\,000 artists apply to the RA\, but only about 1\,500 make the cut\, leaving a whole lot of talent that might otherwise go unseen. \nHoused in a quaint 19th-century bakery on Notting Hill’s iconic Portobello Road\, this year’s exhibition provides a defiant spotlight for these brilliant\, overlooked works. Spanning painting\, sculpture\, photography\, textiles\, and mixed media\, the show features a fresh mix of emerging and established artists reclaiming their space on the summer art calendar. Expect a range of bold statements and thoughtful storytelling\, from bright\, joyful paintings and embroidered buildings to hauntingly beautiful figures. \nWhether you’re an art collector or just art-curious\, Art Friend welcomes everyone to the gallery. So you can decide for yourselves: did the judges make the right decision? Come be the critic and see which artworks make your cut. And if you really love a REJECT\, you can buy it and take it home with you\, as all the artwork on display is for sale. \nOpening Night Drinks: Thursday 18 June & Friday 19 June\, 5–9 pm Join us for drinks\, music\, and a first look at this year’s REJECTS. \nWhy REJECTS matters: REJECTS isn’t just an exhibition\, it’s a movement. It highlights how much talent is out there and how many people face rejection on a daily basis\,we have all been rejects once! So come join the club\, root for the underdog and enjoy seeing what talent has been given a second chance.

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:Family Shakespeare: Pyramus & Thisbe - June
DESCRIPTION:The Rude Mechanicals have been asked to perform a play at the Duke’s wedding. Trouble is\, they’ve forgotten to write it! Can you help??? \nDo you remember Pyramus & Thisbe? The romantic tragedy that Bottom & The Rude Mechanicals were asked to perform for the Duke in A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM? In this interactive theatre experience\, the audience put their heads together to add the finishing touches to the Rude Mechanicals’ play\, helping to create a completely original version! Combining Shakespeare’s original text with fresh ideas from the audience\, the play is fleshed out with music\, props\, puppets\, rhymes\, sound effects & killer dance moves\, resulting in a completely fabulous and totally unique performance! \nEach show follows a simple narrative structure that the audience helps to develop\, encouraging kids to use their imagination as they help to construct characters\, write songs\, create stories\, invent sound effects and more. Each choice enhances their storytelling skills\, exposes them to the infinite possible storylines a tale can take\, and leaves them with a huge sense of pride in their comedy\, musicality and creativity. And because so much of the show is led by the audience\, you’ll never see the same show twice! \nOur shows can be enjoyed by kids of all ages\, and grown-ups too! For participation\, the show is best suited for ages 5 years and above; but for younger audiences\, there is plenty of music\, colour\, and silly comedy to be the perfect spectacle from a lap! \nHullabaloo are passionate about making theatre accessible and encouraging on-your-feet\, wild\, inventive fun where kids can get creative\, free their imagination\, discover some hidden talents\, and learn some of the best theatre ever written. \nSo many kids approach Shakespeare with fear. It gets thrust upon them as teenagers\, with a sudden expectation to understand it. This often results in them feeling overwhelmed and feeling that it’s not for them. But what if they were exposed to it earlier? Hullabaloo believe that the earlier kids are exposed to this great wordsmith\, the better. They believe the sooner kids are exposed to its familiar language and great stories\, the better. Each show exposes children to some of the finest and funniest of Shakespeare’s language\, which will hopefully lead them to view Shakespeare as something fun\, exciting and accessible.

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:A Professorial Lecture by Professor Ioannis S. Pantelidis
DESCRIPTION:“Hospitality as a regenerative force for human connection\, wellbeing and leadership” \nIn this lecture\, Professor Ioannis S. Pantelidis examines the changing landscape of hospitality and tourism and shows how the sector can create regenerative ecosystems through innovation\, behaviour and human-centred leadership. Intelligent systems\, data-driven personalisation and rising experiential expectations are transforming service environments\, yet the true source of excellence remains the human touch. Hospitality cultivates empathy\, cultural awareness\, agility and the practical art of caring for others. These qualities strengthen leadership across health\, business\, transport\, the creative industries and every area where human interaction shapes success. At a time when isolation and mental health concerns are increasing\, the values of hospitality become even more significant. Warm service\, genuine welcome and meaningful moments support emotional well-being and deepen social connection. Drawing on research\, education and lived experience\, Professor Pantelidis offers an optimistic and thought-provoking vision of a sector that continues to evolve while remaining rooted in human values that can guide society toward stronger communities and more compassionate leadership.

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.
