A razor-sharp new work from Afrodeutsche, Manchester Camerata and Robert Ames represents the cutting edge of Manchester’s cultural and musical language.
Afrodeutsche, otherwise known as Henrietta Smith-Rolla, is a composer, producer and DJ based in Manchester. She recently announced The People’s Party, a major new Friday night show on BBC 6Music.
Manchester Camerata has been at the forefront of the city’s cultural scene for 50 years, performing online orchestral raves, touring internationally and running a groundbreaking community-focused social impact programme from their home, The Monastery in Gorton.
Following performances in Coventry and London as part of PRSF New Music Biennial, this piece tours nationally as part of Unquiet in late 2022.
Unquiet is a new live music series for audiences equally engaged with contemporary orchestral music, UK pirate radio, dealing with post-internet anxiety and escaping the algorithm. It is commissioned by Manchester Camerata and NEWFORM, and curated by Robert Ames.
