Barbican Centre data and concert informations

Brilliant...absolutely joyous...couldn't keep smile off my face all the way through....foot tapping..head nodding....lovely harmonies...& London contemporary orchestra was icing on the cake......go see them....roll on next album too...thanks

Incredible concert! Excellent sound and vision. The choir and brass gave it mythical proportions. Also very much enjoyed Shida Shahabi and her trio. We have had a dream night!

The words piss up and brewery spring to mind. The stage lights into the audience for Anna von Hausswolff were so painfully bright, I had to leave the hall. When this continued for the Penguin Cafe Orchestra, I had to leave the building with afterimages. I cannot begin to express my contempt for the way the performance was spoiled, over and above the wasted expense of travel, hotel and ticket .

magival night!

Beth was Fantastic her voice is just amazing and she sings with such feeling always does a Great show

perfect :)

The support act was terrible. Dr John was amazing! Great band. Sarah Morrow was a terrific MD and trombonist. Byron Walden and Carleen Anderson were wonderful. Loved the rearrangements of Armstrong's songs. I sang along with the songs that I know. Surprise encore of "Such a Night" brought the House down. What a night indeed!

Waited many years to see the eels, wasn't at all disappointed. Great performance and sound, great band.

Amazing! Great music, great sense of humour. And Barbican has amazing acoustics!

This was the most beautiful concert I have ever been to. When Marianna Sadovska appeared on the stage I could not hold tears any more. Calling on Kronos Quartet, we were the first audience to hear their newest composition prepared in collaboration with Bryce Dessner. I cannot believe I got so lucky and honoured to participate in this extraordinary premier. The audience overwhelmed the Quartet with such applause they came back on the stage not once... but twice! Firstly: with beautiful American blues from 1920's ( "Last kind words", originally by Geeshie Wiley). Secondly: with stunning soundtrack from movie "the Fountain" ("Death Is the Road to Awe"). This was once in a lifetime experience. Thank you so much Barbican centre for organizing this event. Thank you Kronos Quartet and all the collaborators for this wonderful evening all the best on your 40'th anniversary!
