Additional details

Produced by The Barbican in association with Arctic Circle:

Efterklang & The Britten Sinfonia perform Parades.
with support from Jaga Jazzist

A rare opportunity to see one of the most ambitious and uplifting collaborations of recent years - a performance of Efterklang's 2007 album Parades scored for band and orchestra. The Danish collective's acclaimed music is both soaringly melodic and engagingly intimate; in this setting, it becomes a breathtaking panorama of sound.

'Like a secret musical language born of ice winds and sequestered myth' Mojo

“This is their Dark Side Of The Moon, their OK Computer; it’s the album Björk wishes she’d conjured in her mind when realising Vespertine, full of mystery and long-term intrigue. Seriously; this is one 2007’s finest LPs, no question” 10/10 Drowned In Sound
