2014 Concerts
Building on our deep foundations in the music of Marais and the French Baroque, in 2014 we are continuing to “re-imagine” the viola da gamba with new works, new collaborations and a new instrument: the electric viola da gamba!
Concert 3 – Re-Imaginings
Directed by Jennifer Eriksson and Matt McMahon
In 2013 Jenny took delivery of her Ruby electric gamba. Designed and meticulously hand-made in Holland this concert will see its formal launch and give listeners the opportunity to hear the electric gamba alongside the acoustic original. Collaborators include jazz musicians and composers, Matt McMahon, Paul Cutlan and Siebe Pogson. Music by Marais, new works by Paul Cutlan (for acoustic viola da gamba and harpsichord), Matt McMahon (electric gamba and keyboards) and Siebe Pogson (electric gamba and bass guitar) along with some surprising arrangements!
