Another chance to hear Imogen's sensational live score to this surreal silent film

We were heartbroken to hear that the Birds Eye View Film festival won't be happening this year;their programmes are always challenging, inspiring and a great showcase for women in the film industry. Until they return though, their Sounds and Silents series are touring-the brilliant programme they run where contemporary female musicians write and perform new scores to silent films. Grammy Award-winning superstar Imogen Heap performs alongside the world-renowned Holst Singers in her first ever a capella choral composition, accompanying this seminal work of surrealist French cinema. Originally performed at the Southbank Centre (it was truly memorable), this extraordinary new work is reprised alongside work by vocalist-composer Anna Silver - and promises a finale of Heap's smash-hit song 'Hide and Seek'.
