Concert: duck-rabbit / Our Liberated Winter

duck-rabbit is a trio in which each member of the group takes on a dual role as an acoustic and electronic performer. This marks the release of their first album, lucent, recorded earlier this year.

The group’s development has been driven by a constant desire to explore sound and develop new means of expression. The unique electronic instruments created by the group are continually evolving to meet new musical challenges. In turn, the relationship between the performers and their acoustic instruments has been radically re-conceived to occupy this new sound world. All this takes place in an ensemble which is dedicated to group interaction and spontaneous performance.

Our Liberated Winter is an acoustic improvising quartet featuring Anton Hunter, Robin Bowles, Phil Marks and Simon Prince.

Tickets: £10 / £5 (students of RNCM) available on the door.
