Join us for day of togethering, listening and musiking at Abbey Gardens E15 — bring your own instruments 🌱💫👂🌺

We are gathering to celebrate the permanent installation of Limpe Fuchs’ serpentinite stone row - a musical instrument made of granite plates - at Abbey Gardens.

WORKSHOP + PERFORMANCE:

Centering the serpentinite stone row and Limpe’s practice, we have invited local artists duo Blanc Sceol to join us for a day of collective performances, improvisation and sonic meditation.

will host a workshop inviting participants to play her two pendulum string instruments, the serpentinite stone row, and small percussion pieces. She also encourages you to bring your own instruments. After showing the possibilities of playing with different tools and a period of trying, the precision of our listening will grow and nonverbal communication with the group, sounds and the environment will start.

will be performing with the ‘Orbit’, a self-created instrument they have collaborated with for years. This two-player instrument requires the performers to work together as the Orbit leads them into a cosmos of dynamic, pitch-shifting drones and harmonic rhythms. Their performance will facilitate deep listening and ecological attunement to the surroundings of Abbey Gardens.

FREE ENTRY*

*To support the artists and cover event costs, we are offering tickets at £15, £10, or £5. Choose the amount that works best for you if you’d like to contribute financially 💗
