In a thoughtful exploration of seasonal transition, Manchester Collective and The Marian Consort present 'Wintering' - a musical experience inspired by Katherine May's acclaimed book about embracing the quieter, more introspective moments of the year.

This unique collaboration brings together two renowned ensembles known for their innovative approach to music. Manchester Collective's reputation for cutting-edge programming combines with The Marian Consort's imaginative vocal artistry to create a distinctive musical landscape.

At the heart of the performance is a new composition by Samantha Fernando, which invites audiences to reconsider winter not as a harsh season to endure, but as a time of potential renewal and reflection. The programme weaves traditional and contemporary voices into a harmonious exploration of stillness and connection.

Designed as a gentle antidote to the festive season's usual frenetic energy, this concert offers a restorative musical experience that encourages listeners to slow down and reconnect with themselves and each other.
