Manchester Collective & Abel Selaocoe: Sirocco

Thursday 14 November

Joy, warmth and irrepressible energy: Sirocco is a great storm of music from across the world, played with heart and virtuosity.

 

Expect the unexpected from this show: original South African folk, old Western classics given new life, and outrageous cello solos.

Guest Director Abel Selaocoe is a maverick on the cello. A long-time friend of the collective, he’s a star performer who’s gone from strength to strength as an instrumentalist, singer, and composer. His ability to inspire listeners is matched by his versatility.

Manchester Collective are known for their imaginative programming and engaging performances. Equally at home in a nightclub as a concert hall, they play a combination of cutting-edge contemporary music and classical masterpieces.

Sirocco’s programme is a celebration of music’s power to unify us all. Its infectious spirit has had audiences up on their feet and singing along.
