Line-up:
Robert Mitchell - Piano
Shirley Smart - Cello
This is the very first duo show at the Vortex for Shirley Smart and Robert Mitchell. Having first worked together on a large-scale project of Robert's - Invocation (2014) - there followed many conversations on their mutual overlapping musical interests, eventually leading to a debut album, “Zeitgeist²” (Discus). Recorded at Steinway Recording Studios and engineered, mixed and mastered by Spencer Cozens - it is an exploration of originals, improvisation, poetry and some CPE Bach with a unique history of its own! The new album will be available. Advance copies of Robert’s second book of poetry, “City Of Sanctuary” will also be available on the night.
