Highlights
Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, in partnership
with Southbank Centre, London Philharmonic Orchestra and National
Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, presents a day of extraordinary
new music, dance and film. Surrogate Cities forms part of Music
Nation, a spectacular weekend of music making around the UK to set
the scene and create excitement in the lead up to the London 2012
Festival, the finale of the Cultural Olympiad.
Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, proudly
supported by Canary Wharf Group plc, worked with over five hundred
people from across the Isle of Dogs and Tower Hamlets in this
exploration of the city. Inspired by contemporary German composer
Heiner Goebbels' seminal work, Surrogate Cities, participants of
all ages and backgrounds collaborated with experienced music and
dance practitioners to explore and celebrate the unique cityscape
in which they live.
