Scottish Ensemble and MishMash Productions join forces for in Sync – a show for young people featuring an explosion of live music from twelve phenomenal string players.
Through movement and storytelling, the show introduces first-time classical music audiences and established fans to a diverse tour-de-force of classical and folk music from across the world.
With music chosen for its immediacy, drama and emotional variety, in Sync is performed entirely from memory and features musicians moving amongst the audience – bringing people closer to the humans at the heart of the music.
in Sync toured to schools in Sunderland, Birmingham, London and Nottingham in November 2024 before featuring as part of the Nottingham Chamber Music Festival Autumn Season at St Mary’s Church Nottingham. In January 2025, the show was performed to two sold-out audiences at London’s Southbank Centre.
“The finale of the concert erupted into somewhat of a ceilidh, where music and movement came together one last time in a harmonious celebration. This collaboration truly is for anyone and everyone, from the classical connoisseur to the first-time concert-goer. I cannot wait to see what they come up with next!” NottsRocks Review, November 2024.
