CBSO in the City

CBSO in the City comes to Ikon Gallery and provides free performances in our current exhibition SPAN by artist Seulgi Lee.

Classics Reimagined at Ikon, 2-3.30pm
Join us for an exciting line-up of music, combining classical favourites with popular hits. Hear a string quartet perform music by composers including Ludovico Einaudi and Sigur Rós – or if you’re more of a pop fan, enjoy classics by Clean Bandit, Björk, The Cardigans and more.

Double Bass and Friends at Ikon, 3.45-5pm
Experience the rhythmic power and rich tone of the double bass in a selection of duets, programmed and performed by CBSO musicians.

The performance showcases four double bass players, joined by members of the brass, woodwind and string sections of the orchestra.
