Solem Quartet variations on a theme: Kate Bush and Steve Reichs

The Solem Quartet and Alice Zawadzki unite to celebrate Steve Reich’s 90th birthday with a programme that weaves together personal history and visionary songwriting.

At its heart is Reich’s iconic Different Trains, a landmark twentieth-century work blending recorded voices, train sounds and string quartet to powerful emotional effect. Zawadzki joins the quartet for new arrangements of her own genre-defying songs, rich in folklore, imagination and jazz-inflected freedom, alongside striking reworkings of Kate Bush by Will Newell.
