Description
Mid-July four hundred (and one!) years ago, the Mayflower Ship set out to sail the Atlantic. The voyagers, both religious separatists and fairer-fortune seekers, did not reach land until over nine weeks later. The vessel's master and crew were Rotherhithe men. This duo performance follows the premiere of this specially commissioned music last October and sets the scene as we slip into the shoes of those migrating adventurers, whose arrival on American shores had such an impact on the indigenous people already there and on those who were to follow.
One Voice, One Cello & A Mad Belgian is a unique collaboration between two singer songwriters, British cellist Rupert Gillett and Belgian soprano saxophonist and melodeon player Jennifer El Gammal. Narration will be by American actor Nathan Osgood.
On sale will be the new CD of the 2020 live premiere, just launched on 29th May. "it's specifically this mix of genres that is so irresistible, along with the church's acoustics and the public's participation. An original album which keeps on getting better the more you listen to it." Belgian national newspaper Le Soir (translated from the original French).
Please wear a mask when entering the church. If feeling unwell or if had any COVID contact, please do not attend. A cash bar serving drinks will be running on the night.
