Nathaniel Mackey and the Creaking Breeze Ensemble
Cafe OTO presents a new and unique collaboration between a seminal award-winning author and five uncompromisingly exploratory artists.
Nathaniel Mackey and the Creaking Breeze Ensemble meet in London for the first time to develop two live performances based on letters from Mackey's From A Broken Bottle epistolary series. Inspired by Mackey's fictional music, these experimental performances will explore the mysterious balance between sound and word. Together the group perform real and imagined music using voices, drums, saxophone, cello and violin.
The Creaking Breeze Ensemble are Billy Steiger, Evie Ward, Paul Abbott, Seymour Wright and Ute Kanngiesser.
