A powerful immersive sonic experience of suspense and shifting sounds.
By Mark Anderson. Created in collaboration with Liam Walsh.
A captivating sound-world that comes alive through an ever-changing outdoor live performance. Using an ensemble of visually striking ‘instruments’ - gongs, bells, whistles and explosive events - Warning Notes gives a voice to the social and ecological alarm rippling across our planet. A hypnotic and playful invitation to contemplate our future together.
For everyone - from children to adults. Workshop and accessible performances available.
"A pulsing, gorgeous and threatening world woven out of sound sculptures and beautiful, rhythmic notes”
