Piano Day – Elliot Galvin, Yshani Perinpanayagam & Kerry Yong

Arctic Circle presents an evening of metamorphosis and transmutation as bird song is set free, insects dodge the hitting of a hammer and the shimmering colours of the piano keys combine in strange and addictive configurations.

During this evening sit back, close your eyes and listen to a minimalistic masterpiece from Philip Glass (Metamorphosis), extracts from Messiaen’s Catalogue d’oiseaux (‘catalogue of birds’) and the sonic landscapes of jazz pianist and composer Elliot Galvin.

On the 88th Day of the year, we’d like you to join us to celebrate Piano Day – an evening of music from the beloved and often underappreciated pianoforte, an instrument that tonight will be given the space, time and setting to be experienced at its most beautiful.
