Earlier this month, we hit the road with Manchester Collective to tour our joint Rothko Chapel programme

With concerts at London’s Southbank Centre and Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall framing the trip, we also made our debut appearances in Germany and Belgium.

Here’s a round up of how it went down…

a wonderfully subtle and hushed sense of the numinous. This was singing of an extremely high order, and the close-written choral sounds were quite extraordinary, with bell-clear soprano soli.

[an] exquisitely moulded performance

Today’s concert ticked all the boxes for a great show: clever light set-up, a few introductory remarks, seamless transitions, skilled musicians and, naturally, an exciting programme. The ambitious goal to “invite contemplation” and “create a spiritual space” was gloriously accomplished.
— Marat Ingeldeev, Bachtrack

Pitching from SANSARA is (pardon the pun) simply off the scale... An utterly remarkable, unforgettable concert. In SANSARA, Manchester Collective has surely found an aesthetic twin.
