NEW WAVE MUSIC: Let There Be Light

Emerging contemporary music specialists and Royal College of Music alumni, flautist Tilly Coulton and pianist Sophia Lim present a recital that traces the seven days of creation as told in Genesis, pairing each day with a short contemporary work that reflects its character, energy, and sense of emergence. While rooted in ancient narrative, the programme is not about religious belief, but about creation in a broader sense: the shaping of sound, the unfolding of ideas, and a celebration of the natural world and the beauty it has to offer. The programme will include pieces by Sofia Gubaidulina, Gyorgi Ligeti, David Fennesy, Olivier Messiaen, and more.
