Rob Cowan at Sage Gateshead

Live from Sage Gateshead, Rob Cowan presents a special programme from the 2015 Free Thinking Festival, featuring familiar pieces in unfamiliar arrangements and unusual ensembles.

Join Rob Cowan live from Sage Gateshead with a selection of music that tears up the rulebook. Familiar pieces by Handel, Mahler and Rameau get unusual makeovers, there are unusual ensembles from jazz quintets to balalaika ensembles and the saxophone takes centre stage as a classical instrument in works by Bach and Tavener. At 11, the programme crosses live to the Cenotaph for the Act of Remembrance.
