Sold out peformances of Drumming at the Southbank Centre
Colin leads the Colin Currie Group in four special performances of Steve Reich Drumming at London’s Southbank Centre this December.
The work will be performed in the venue’s Hayward Gallery alongside the visually puzzling art by Bridget Riley in the Southbank Centre’s major retrospective on her work.
Reich’s Drumming returns to the site of its premiere: in 1972, its original performance was in Hayward Gallery, with musicians including Reich himself and Michael Nyman, Gavin Bryars and Cornelius Cardew.
The concerts on 6 and 7 December sold out in record time. For any ticket returns and to find out more, click here.
