Resonance104.4fm is proud to present a unique concert of new music
featuring Australia's foremost improviser JON ROSE
Friday 11th April 2008, St Pancras Old Church, Pancras Road, Kings
Cross. Doors open at 8pm and concert starts at 8.30pm. Entrance £8 and
£5 concs. There will be a bar.
This is a unique (for British audiences probably the very last)
opportunity to hear the music of Jon Rose and two of his own very
favourite acoustic settings:
The Kryonics
Jon Rose, violins (including the Stroh cello); Aleks Kolkowski,
violin (including the Stroh violin); Joe Williamson, contrabass violin
+
Temperament
Jon Rose, violins; Veryan Weston, resident Brindley & Foster wind
organ with tracker action
At last audiences in London can find out what this euro-star-music is
all about as the wind organ at the oldest church in Britain - St.
Pancras, London (founded 314 AD) - has been confirmed for a
Weston-Rose concert on 11th April with Aleks Kolkowski's Kryonics
Stroh Violin project on the same bill.
Not since the gothic horror of H P Lovecraft in his 'Music of Erich
Zahn' has the art of music offered such an evening of candlelit
weirdness and intrigue. The combination of Tenor violin, half stopped
organ, Stroh violin, bass violin, and bowed saw will set the spine
erect and tingling. The setting? None other than London's home of
spook - St Pancras Old Church. Equipped with the notable stiffs of
Johann Christian Bach, Mary Shelley, and Thomas Hardy to name but a
few, the graveyard offers little comfort for those who would entertain
an evening on the hard pew contemplating mortality and the ancient and
modern of music. The crow awaits you at the door. Dress code: Black.
Makeup: Black.
