Scenes from a Street is a programme of contrasting juxtapositions of ideas; our senses and the landscapes and the immediate world around us. An evocative and immersive programme inspired by climate crisis, movement of people, our behaviour and the lack of touch during lockdown over the last two years.
At the heart of UPROAR’s latest project are three brand new commissions from three outstanding Welsh composers: Guto Pryderi Puw, Carlijn Metselaar and Joseph Davies for an ensemble of 15 musicians.
Two celebrated international classical composers, multi-award winning Korean composer, Unsuk Chin’s Gougalon and Pulitzer Prize winning composer, Du Yun’s, Impeccable Quake, will be performed for the first time in Wales. An evening packed full of assorted styles, experiments and immersive sound experiences for those especially interested in the new frontiers of classical music.
