Inside Aurora Orchestra at Drumsheds

Thu 17 October 2024
Drumsheds
6pm & 8.30pm

Discover a completely revelatory way of listening to the dazzling sounds of Stravinsky and Ravel.

Step inside an exploded Aurora Orchestra as they harness the potential of playing from memory inside the vast, industrial warehouse space of London’s most exciting new venue Drumsheds. Following the success of four sold-out shows at Printworks, Aurora’s latest immersive project is again created in collaboration with Drumsheds and the Southbank Centre.

Move around the orchestra and get up close to the performers as Aurora presents two monumental ballet scores; Stravinsky’s glittering Firebird, and Ravel’s hypnotic Boléro. Feel the power of a full symphony orchestra conjuring up dancing monsters, an evil sorcerer, seductive dancers and a sultry Spanish tavern.

If you haven’t been to a classical concert before, this will be a great place to start. And if you’re a seasoned concert-goer, come and experience these incredible works from inside the orchestra itself.
