Sounds for 2022

Kick off 2022 with two hours of adventures in sound with Verity Sharp, from light-inspired sounds from Seoul to haunting vocals from Harrogate and Saharan rock from Agadez.

Kick off 2022 with two hours of adventures in sound with Verity Sharp, serving up plenty of new releases to look forward to. There’s shimmering sounds from Seoul courtesy of multi-instrumentalist Park Jiha, inspired by the way light transforms throughout the day, as well as an experimental opera from Berlin-based composer Pan Daijing about time, solitude and tissues. There’ll be Tuareg guitar music from Etran de L’Aïr, a family band of brothers and cousins based in Agadez, the capital city of Saharan rock. Plus haunting vocals from Harrogate-based singer and actor Keeley Forsyth that explore ‘relationships, morning routines, fear of death, cruelty, frailty, love and tenderness’.
