A Turning Leaf
A slow-burn, underground contemporary classical night.
In a world that moves ever faster, step into a space where music, movement, silence, and human connection are given room to breathe. Introducing Sanctuary, an experience where listening becomes a shared act of reflection and gathering. In A Turning Leaf, cellist Matthew Barley, pianist Mishka Rushdie Momen, and The Purcell Singers are joined by solo dancers from The Royal Ballet in a candlelit experience where music and movement are intertwined. From the deep spirituality of Arvo Pärt to music by J.S. Bach, John Cage, and more, the programme traces a path through stillness, transformation, and wonder.
