This performance will take place at Manchester Cathedral.
James McVinnie organ
Eliza McCarthy organ
Jonny Greenwood 605 Years of Reverb (8 hours)
Experience Jonny Greenwood’s immersive work ‘605 Years of Reverb’ in this unique event, set in the stunning surroundings of Manchester Cathedral.
Organists James McVinnie and Eliza McCarthy team up to take on this immense piece, written by Jonny Greenwood to commemorate and celebrate the unique legacy of organs in historic buildings.
Drawing upon influences from Indian music, the work gradually builds in texture and complexity, slowly introducing new musical ideas and striking new sound worlds. ‘Melodies in Indian music are often thought of as circular, rather than linear,’ says Greenwood, ‘You’re climbing on to a moving wheel, not starting and ending in silence.’
A truly unique experience – music will fill the space and light will move around Manchester Cathedral as the sun sets throughout the event, ending as darkness falls.
Join for the full eight hour experience or for a timed slot, available every two hours.
