Our core repertoire focuses on music written after 1945, with an emphasis on timbre and ritual. Sound is an eternally fascinating phenomenon, and music can harness its power in ever more original ways: new music, ancient ideas.
In 2018, we will perform a series of three Composer Portraits at The Coronet Theatre, London, and we record for Frank Denyer's CD The Fish that became the Sun, due for release on 'Another Timbre'.
The Print Room at the Coronet, 103 Notting Hill Gate, London W11 3LB
A chance to discover Denyer’s music – rare performances using many unconventional instruments. The Octandre Ensemble is joined by soprano Juliet Fraser – not to be missed!
