Mama’s Kitchen – Layla Rosa @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 22 @ 8:00 pm – 9:15 pm

Mama’s Kitchen is a place for experimentation and curious concoctions, serving up a menu of pioneering performance.

The brainchild of Shunt artist Layla Rosa and curated especially for Postcards, expect circus artists, theatre makers, musicians, visual artists and a whole heap of other exciting performances that we’re not entirely sure about just yet.

But if previous outings at The Shunt Lounge are anything to go by, Mama’s Kitchen will be unexpected and hugely memorable.

Following a very successful concert in February, London Composers Forum takes pride and delight in joining forces for a second time with the London Myriad Ensemble, to present a concert at Lauderdale House, showcasing the music of the ten Forum composers who featured in the February concert.

Since its conception as a professional chamber group in 2004, the London Myriad Ensemble has performed regularly both in the UK and internationally. As first prize International Competition winners in 2009, the ensemble performs a wide repertoire as a flexible ensemble with a wind quartet as its core which expands to quintet when required. ww.londonmyriad.com

With a keen interest in new music and in expanding the repertoire for woodwind chamber ensemble, the London Myriad Ensemble welcomes this second collaboration with London Composers Forum and the chance to explore the broad variety of exciting and accessible music which Forum composers have contributed.

The works in the programme range from jazz-inspired through to pastoral, humorous, festive and elegiac in character and present a fascinating cross-section of the creative mix that makes London Composers Forum a vibrant and dynamic focus for new music in the capital. This concert is supported by the RVW Trust.

London Composers Forum is open to all composers interested in composing contemporary classical music. New members are welcomed regularly. Visit the website: www.londoncomposersforum.org.uk
