Most noisenights feature two short classical sets, one early evening, one late. All tickets to the late set include live music or DJs for the rest of the night, including jazz, latin, afrobeat, swing and funk acts.
Live music needs your backing more than ever. Becoming a noisenight backer means getting tickets to hear the world's best performers up close while becoming part of a community working for a positive future for live music.
After a noisenight reaches its funding target, we'll e-mail all backers to confirm it and a small amount of extra tickets will be made available. These tickets are released in three stages, which increase in price the closer to the event they're purchased. Book early to get the best price.
Please note that due to the venue's license, this noisenight is strictly 18+.
the venue:
The Jago is a renowned arts and culture venue in the renovated buildings of the Hackney Gazette printing press.
Their eclectic programme of music, art, workshops and community work relects the diverse cultures of the local Dalston community.
It's also a special venue for us, as it's just round the corner from through the noise HQ.
the music:
Lodestar Trio is a unique collaboration between stars of the Scandinavian folk scene Erik Rydvall and Olav Mjelva, and British violin virtuoso Max Baillie.
Together they bring a spirit of groove and improvisation into Baroque music by combining traditional nordic string instruments— the Swedish nyckelharpa and the Norwegian hardanger fiddle— with the violin.
Their repertoire includes uniquely re-imagined versions of pieces from the Bach cello suites, the Bach sonatas and partitas for solo violin, all played in Lodestar’s own trio arrangements, and other Baroque works by Merula and Couperin, alongside traditional and contemporary Nordic tunes.
