About This Event
Music that won鈥檛 stay in its box: Elizabeth Alker presents Moor Mother, Modern Nature and Kate Stables (This Is The Kit) with the 成人快手 Concert Orchestra in the latest instalment of 成人快手 Radio 3's genre-defying Unclassified Live.
Some music doesn鈥檛 fit easy categories. It falls between the cracks and thrives there 鈥� putting down roots, pushing up shoots and quietly but unstoppably shifting the whole way that we listen.鈥�
Unclassified Live鈥痠s an uninterrupted鈥痩istening party for curious ears, filled with鈥痷nexpected meetings, joyous fusions and the kind of sounds that knock your pre-conceptions off-centre and then bring you back, thirsty for more. This latest instalment of this long-running series is hosted 鈥� as always 鈥� by 成人快手 Radio 3鈥檚 Elizabeth Alker. Robert Ames conducts.
But that鈥檚 the only stable element in an evening that brings together the US-based poet, musician and activist Moor Mother, the collaborative sounds of Cambridge-based contemporary folk outsiders Modern Nature, and This Is The Kit, fronted by the inimitable, irrepressible Kate Stables, with her candid, tonal embraces. How does that sound? There鈥檚 only one way to find out: be there.鈥�
