Speakers Corner Quartet Celebrates The Music Of Arthur Russell

This event will take place in EartH Theatre.Speakers Corner Quartet - the acclaimed South London collective made up of flautist Biscuit, drummer Kwake Bass, violinist Raven Bush, and bassist Peter Bennie - bring a special celebration of the music of visionary cellist, composer and songwriter Arthur Russell to EartH Theatre.

Known for their improvisational style and emotional depth, the quartet continues to evolve after nearly two decades of collaboration, shaping London’s music scene and mentoring rising talent.This one-off performance celebrates Russell’s boundary-pushing legacy, whose genre-blurring work continues to influence generations of artists.

Following their sold-out 2021 Barbican return and critically acclaimed debut album Further Out Than The Edge, Speakers Corner Quartet will reinterpret Russell’s music alongside special guests Oscar Jerome, Coby Sey, Ade Egun Crispin (Balimaya Project), Sarah Tandy, Oscar Farrell and Murkage Dave.They craft an intimate, orchestral experience that embodies the rallying cry of both Russell’s vision and the Quartet’s journey: fearless, collaborative, and endlessly expressive.For more information on access at EartH, please see our FAQs here: https://bit.ly/44dzl75 or contact us at access@earthackney.co.ukEartH is a social enterprise committed to supporting new musicians, with music studios in the venue that are completely free for young artists to use.
