Surround
Music in Motion
Friday 11 September, 7pm
Cambridge Town Hall
An immersive opening night experience
Surround invites audiences to experience chamber music in a new way, with performances unfolding across multiple stages throughout the hall. Move with the music, settle in close, or take in the evening from a distance with a drink in hand as each set offers a different perspective.
Across four short, contrasting sets, the programme moves from timeless classics to contemporary voices and folk-inspired rhythms. Designed to be welcoming and engaging, Surround offers a fresh approach to chamber music for first-time listeners and seasoned audiences alike.
