Sound Structures

Online booking has now closed; the box will reopen at Coventry Cathedral at 7pm

Birmingham Contemporary Music Group and Royal Birmingham Conservatoire have joined forces to offer NEXT, a new and unique 1-year training programme for music students and professional musicians looking for a career as performers of contemporary music. In the stunning surroundings of Coventry Cathedral, this year’s NEXT musicians will give a concert of new music specially selected to celebrate the Cathedral’s rich architectural heritage. Audience members are encouraged to move around the space as music is performed in different parts of the building. From works inspired by the same rich colours in John Piper’s stunning stained-glass windows, to music which makes use of spatial distance, Sound Structures explores the relationship between music and materials.
