Why not enjoy an afternoon of ensemble improvisation that will explore the strengths and limits of freedom and improvisation in music, as heard in the System 50:50 for improvisers developed over twenty years by Phil Morton?
The players will be drawn from the experimental and improvised music scene in London and are familiar names to many as performers in their own right and as regular participants in the London Improvisers Orchestra and Eddie Prevost’s Workshop among other vehicles for the promotion of free improvised music.
Chris Hill brought Phil Morton‘s System 50:50 for improvisers to London on November 6th 2022, it was a rewarding day for 19 improvisers and small audience at Hundred Years Gallery. The aim during 2024 is to increase the frequency of the sessions in London, to explore links with sessions in Oxford, Birmingham and to later in 2024/5 develop the Half The Sky concept.
