Norfolk & Norwich Festival
Clarissa Connelly
Born in Scotland, raised in Denmark, and now based in Copenhagen, she’s a composer and multi-instrumentalist with a reputation for blending everything from William Blake’s poetry to French philosophy into her sound.
Alogte Oho & His Sounds of Joy
From the rainforests of Ghana, Alogte Oho brightens the rainy skies of Norwich with his enthusiastic Sounds of Joy.
BBC Singers
Stunning semi-improvised sections made for a compelling listening experience, enhanced by some stunning solo singing.
Corto.alto
This electric jazz performance had me shocked with how good it was.
Toast + Songs of the Bulbul
However many N&N shows you see, at least one Toast session should be part of the mix, especially if you can top it off with a Song of the Bulbul.
Band Night
With a ticket price of just £10, this turned out to be one of the best value-for-money shows in the whole of the Norfolk & Norwich Festival programme.
Apartment House
Apartment House's bold program of music spanned a hundred years of composition, each piece having an oblique but tangible connection with the next.
Nabihah Iqbal
A compelling journey across soundscapes and styles.
THE GURDJIEFF ENSEMBLE
Once again, NNF broadens Pavlis’ musical horizons.
Show Pony
That audience, having clearly been won over by their winning personalities, lapped up every moment, hooted with laughter throughout, and repeatedly broke out into spontaneous applause, culminating in a standing ovation
STILL HOUSE PLANTS
The upside of NNF is the chance to discover new and different things. The downside is that sometimes those things are just too different.
Sean Shibe
An engrossing, excellently programmed, performed and contextualised, selection.
