Monteverdi 1610 Vespers

I Fagiolini

Sound Unwrapped Monteverdi 1610 Vespers

I Fagiolini

English Cornett and Sackbut Ensemble

Robert Hollingworth conductor

For the first time in Hall One, a performance of Monteverdi’s 1610 Vespers, using both stage and galleries. Much of the glory of the Vespers’ psalm settings is in their detail, too often lost in the vast acoustics of many venues.  Monteverdi even suggests the smaller ‘chapels or chambers of princes’ for the book’s motets.  Experimenting with Hall One’s acoustic coustic clarity and close balconies, and basing their performance on the latest research,

I Fagiolini and the English Cornett and Sackbut Ensemble offer an intimate guide to this defining work.

The Goldberg Variations Reimagined

Rachel Podger: Artist in Focus 23/24 JS Bach, arr. Chad Kelly The Goldberg Variations Reimagined

Rachel Podger violin/director Brecon Baroque

Employing a variety of instrumental combinations from a typical Bach ensemble of single strings, oboe, flute, bassoon and harpsichord, these newly-crafted Goldbergs illuminate this well-worn journey with exquisite responses to the genres expressed in Bach’s scores. From aria to overture, fugue to trio sonata, and concerto to quodlibet, the variations take flight in ways which would have graced his Sunday coffee concerts in Leipzig in the 1730s –and which transform the listening experience for today’s audience.

We aim to make your visit to Kings Place as comfortable as possible.

An infrared system is available in both Hall One and Hall Two. All areas are accessible to those with Assistance Dogs.

We recommend joining the Kings Place Access Scheme, which will enable you to book access tickets online and will ensure our team can offer you the best possible experience when you visit Kings Place.

The full Access Guide can be found on the website.

Arriving late

We will endeavour to seat latecomers at a suitable break in the performance, according to the artists’ instructions. However, this may not always be possible and in some instances, latecomers may not be admitted. Tickets are non-refundable.

Taking pictures

You are welcome to take photos at the end of events for social media,

provided this doesn’t interfere with anyone’s enjoyment of the performance. However, there may be occasions when the artist has requested no photography, which we would make clear on the day. Kings Place staff members may take pictures during your visit that are later used for promotional purposes. Signage will be displayed if filming is taking place during a performance. Members of the audience are not permitted to film performances. Please speak to a member of staff if you have any concerns.

Food & Drink Policy

Please note that food is not permitted inside our venues. Please ensure that all drinks are decanted into the plastic cups provided prior to entering our venues. Red wine is not permitted inside Hall One.
