Purcell, but make it personal.

Artist in Residence Olivia Chaney giving us her enchanting version of Purcell's 'There's Not a Swain' at the series launch in Hall Two last year.

This Saturday, she lands in Hall One to present the London debut of material from her new Purcell album, featuring a star-studded chamber ensemble.

The concert will showcase Olivia’s deeply personal approach to Purcell, uncovering a new, more accessible side to the much-loved baroque composer.

Come and hear a Grammy-nominated songwriter and multi-instrumentalist at the height of her powers, interpreting one of England’s great composers.

Jazz so mesmerising it feels like a spell ✨

Step into the world of Olga Amelchenko’s Howling Silence.

Born in Siberia and now based in Paris, the saxophonist and composer brings a smouldering, intimate sound shaped by personal challenge and resilience. Howling Silence, her 2025 album, explores the tension between what we express and what we hold back, through hypnotic textures and striking composition.

Immersive contemporary jazz presented by Edition Records and Kings Place.
