Baroque Barrett: ... and what exactly is a joke?

UK Premiere

Sat 14 Nov
9pm
Sad 14 Tach

A special concert of songs by the late, great English singer songwriter and Pink Floyd legend Syd Barrett arranged and conducted by Italian composer and musicologist Marco Lenzi, sung by Anthony Reynolds. Lenzi’s aim was to reveal the beauty of Barrett’s melodies by translating into a more classical vocabulary. Anthony Reynolds is a critically acclaimed musician and author and has worked with Scott Walker’s producer Peter Walsh, Momus, Vashti Bunyan and cult author Colin Wilson. Marco Lenzi’s compositions have been performed by classical, contemporary music and rock performers. They will be joined on piano by Cardiff-based composer Dave Stapleton.

Originally commissioned by Luca Fagella of the Cambini Chamber Music festival in Livorno, Italy.

£12/£10/£8 or Free with a full Experimentica festival pass.
