Manchester Collective x The Marian Consort: Wintering

The festive season can often be a hectic time of year. Wintering is a balm for the soul, where we’re invited to slow down, to reconnect with the land and one another, as we usher in the winter solstice.

Beautiful harmonies and voices, both traditional and contemporary, resonate together. Inspired by Katherine May’s bestselling book ‘Wintering’, a new piece from composer Samantha Fernando asks: what if we made peace with the cold, dark days instead of running away?

Known for their unique blend of cutting-edge music and classical masterpieces, Manchester Collective join forces with The Marian Consort – a vocal ensemble with a penchant for imaginative and eclectic programming.

Expect a restorative and intimate evening.
