Sense of Sound’s latest commission by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic will be a reflection on the theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2008 “Imagine…Remember, Reflect, React”.

This composition by Sense of Sound brings the startling and evocative voices of Sarajevo born singer Téa Hodzic and our own Sense of Sound Choir in a performance choreographed by Darren Suarez and directed by Paula Simms. Special guests include Kinetic Fallacy, Curtis Watt and Jonathan John.

Too easily we take for granted our right to have a voice and to express it freely. Through this thought-provoking new work, incorporating songs, music, movement and spoken word, Sense of Sound will explore how voices can be used to harm, heal, unify, celebrate and denounce.

Tickets £3 in advance available from Liverpool Philharmonic Hall or 0151 709 3789.

  2. Dear John,

    Thank you so much for your kind comments.

    This commission was really important to us and we felt honoured to be
    given such a responsibility. It was our intention that the piece should
    be thought provoking and, judging by your comments, it would seem we
    managed to achieve this.

    We all have a responsibility to be aware and take care of eachother in
    whatever way we are able to and is appropriate.

    Thank you for your continued support.
