    Proms at … Bold Tendencies Multi-Storey Car Park, Peckham: 3.09.16

    (12:00 Saturday 3 Sep 2016
    Bold Tendencies Multi-Storey Car Park, Peckham
    - not being broadcast
    15:00 Saturday 3 Sep 2016
    Bold Tendencies Multi-Storey Car Park, Peckham


    Steve Reich: Vermont Counterpoint
    Steve Reich: Eight Lines
    Steve Reich: Music for a Large Ensemble

    Multi-Story Orchestra
    Christopher Stark conductor

    The Proms steps out of the Royal Albert Hall and into a municipal car park in Peckham to salute the man who reconnected art music to urban culture in all its drive, repetition and asymmetry.
    South London favourites Christopher Stark and the Multi-Story Orchestra make their Proms debut in an all-Reich performance on their home ground.
    The programme includes Reich's bright and excitable Music for a Large Ensemble - his first major work for full orchestra - and the shifting patterns of his single-movement 'octet' Eight Lines.

    The Multi-Story Orchestra plays Reich at Bold Tendencies multi-storey car park in Peckham.

      Has anyone else had bold tendencies in a Peckham car park... Or indeed any car park? It seems niche, even in this day and age.

      Will Stark be naked?

        Possible the sort of gimmick Radio 3 now considers to be "cool".

          Car parks kinda do that to me - on some level.

                Is this an event for those who confuse their entrances with their exits?

                  Sounds fine to me.


                  But not as big if you pay early.

                    If you overstay you presumably attract a penalty charge; might the same go for the music if it overstays its welcome?

                      Edinburgh Fringe gag of the year a couple of years ago - crime in multi-storey car parks - it's wrong on so many levels.

                        If one were just to attend this concert out of inquisitiveness, that would presumably make one a nosey parker.

                          No doubt, but at least concerts like this are no barrier to such inquisitiveness. Pay 'n' just' play.

                            Better sound engineering than I expected. I did find it strange, however, that while drawing attention to the revision of the Octet into Eight Lines, no mention was made of the significant revisions to Music for a Large Ensemble after its first performance. The original, longer and more lightly scored, version may be heard here.

                              I dunno. I'd feel quite intimidated by the prospect of going to a concert in a car park in Peckham.
