SOUND THE ALARM

Friday, June 28, 2024
9:00 AM – 12:30 PM

In the spirit of radical community action, collective consciousness and self-determination as a group activity, this large ensemble instigation will present a night of improvisations, compositions and something in-between.

Brought together by shared values, this first performance of Sound the Alarm features a remarkable group of Sydney based improviser / composers. Instigated by Clayton Thomas, founder of Splinter Orchestra, Splitter Orchester Berlin and an experienced leader of large improvising ensembles for over 20 years, this will be a night not to be missed.
