SEVEN DEADLY SINS

Part of The Music in You

 

Luís Tinoco  Accordion Concerto (UK premiere)
Weill  The Seven Deadly Sins

Edward Gardner  Conductor
João Barradas  Accordion
Danielle de Niese  Anna
Ross Ramgobin  Brother
Callum Thorpe  Mother
Adam Gilbert Father
Amar Muchhala  Brother

Pride is for the wealthy, and in an economic crunch there’s only one way for a girl to get ahead. Bertolt Brecht knew that back in 1933, and Kurt Weill set it to music that stings even while it slips tune after fabulously sleazy tune into your unresisting ears. Social comment has never been so shameless. Soprano extraordinaire Danielle de Niese stars in The Seven Deadly Sins, and accordion sensation João Barradas shows that no instrument is so humble that it can’t burn the house down, as Edward Gardner and the LPO head to Battersea Arts Centre for these two performances to liberate The Music in You.

UNREAL
A Festival of Magic and Performance

Curated by Tom Cassani, Augusto Corrieri and Tim Bromage

A week-long festival presented by extraordinary artists from across the UK and Europe, working at the intersection of magic and performance.

A man with short black hair and glasses is has their back slightly turned away from the viewer, wearing a black t-shirt. He has just thrown a pale, almost transparent piece of cloth in the air, his arms still outstretched from the motion. The cloth is still suspended in the air, and there is a fan in front of the man keeping it afloat. The background is completely black.

Event Info Sold Out
A white man with long curly hair tied back in a ponytail is wearing a suit and extending out his arms as if ready to cast a spell. He looks concerned, as if he’s trying to ward something off. Behind him is a window painted black and a metallic red and purple curtain. The whole image has a paint-like quality to it, as if it’s been put through a retro filter on photo-booth to make it appear more like a poster.
