Inaugural concerts - featuring the music of PHILIP GLASS

The windcatcher and glassworks

Concerts at Hackney Church and The Stoller Hall, Manchester

The Ensemble performed its inaugural concerts at Hackney Church on Tuesday 23rd September. The hour-long programme featured two works by Philip Glass - The Windcatcher (for 6 saxophones) and Glassworks (to which strings, horns and keyboard were added to the ensemble). This was followed by performances two days later at Manchester's Stoller Hall.

Plans for the future.

We were heartened and somewhat overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of audiences at our inaugural concerts; this has definitely spurred us on to repeat the programme at subsequent concerts in 2026. No dates or venues are confirmed at present, but please check back periodically.


In the meantime, we are working on some promotional footage filmed by the excellent Matt Moore ( www.mooreproductions.org ) and hope to have that live over the next few weeks.


As for other projects, we are investigating the possibility of doing some projects which combine music with visual elements. Quite a bit of planning to do on that - but something of which Monsieur Satie would surely have approved!
