Sarah Small
Good Again?
A Cycling Concert Tour
Disillusioned by the lack of support for sustainable touring within the arts, along with concerns about the impact and cost of audience travel from rural areas to venues in cities, she’s taking matters into her own hands and cycling from venue to venue to share her programme ‘Good Again?’ with audiences far and wide.
Centred around the title work ‘Good Againe’ by Tobias Hume, this programme for solo viola da gamba features music expressing the feelings of grief, contemplation, and hope felt by many of us during these unstable times, along with tales from the road that remind us of the beauty in slow travel.
The programme includes Marais’ Les Voix Humaines (human voices), Forqueray’s La Girouette (the weather vane), Sainte-Colombe’s Les Pleurs (tears) and Hume’s galvanising The Spirit of Gambo.
Sarah also plays a specially commissioned piece by composer Lillie Harris, pondering our wish to return to what was before and whether the future can, in fact, be brighter.
