The Third Orchestra

Our Spring Season started with a few surprises, and two wonderful concerts of The Healing Circle at The Brunei Gallery at SOAS University of London, and at Bush House, King's College London for the annual conference of The British Forum of Ethnomusicology. How special to play in the theatre at Bush House where for 100 years, the BBC World Service has broadcast to the globe with the motto- Nation shall speak peace unto nation. 

Along with members of the Third Orchestra Peter has taken part in creating music for a Kings College project recording for interactive spacial audio experience. KCL's Zoran Cvetkovic, Professor of Signal Processing and the amazing MagicBean immersive recording aid specialists, this promises to be an exiting departure into the world of sound technology. 

The Spring Season continues at our home Club Inégales with young cross-genre post-graduate performers and composers from across London joining us to create further iterations of our season's The Healing Circle project. 
Pangea will be performing with The Third Orchestra on 23rd April and with Riot Ensemble on 30th April. To complete this run, on 14th May, The Third Orchestra will host and perform with young Arabic Jazz ensemble Jam al-Jazz. 

The Third Orchestra band for these concerts will feature a few new members including Miguel Lawrence, Namvua Rennie and Colin Chow alongside our regular players Shri Sriram, Pete Wareham and Ant Romero. In a special turn, our Guzheng player Mengdie Ji will bring her sister, and fellow Guzheng player- Bahar Arslan- so two Guzheng- what's not to like!
