EYEMUSIC Concert 4: The Fat Lady has Sung

Ziazan Horrocks-Hopayian (voice, harp) has reconstructed the lost bel canto singing method, and with harpsichordist Tessa Marchington, will take you on a journey through opera’s birth, its demise and end with its future in the form of Cevanne’s commission for Handel House. Expect to see demonstrations of costumes inspired by Handel’s London by Lindsey Holmes of Costumiersaurus and the audience is encouraged to dress in their interpretation of ‘retro-futurism’. Part of the EYEMUSIC series. Inspired by Renaissance ‘Augenmusik’ (where music notation mixed with art) Composer-in-Residence Cevanne Horrocks-Hopayian has opened her music programme to visual perspectives. From synesthesia to theatre; costume to construction; Cevanne builds on her last sell-out series with new themes, featuring actor-writer Jessica Hynes, works by Roxanna Panufnik and James Macmillan, as well as the première of her final Handel House commission.
