A celebration of the Soul with Leeds Song Festival and Pyramid
Join Pyramid’s High Rise Music group at Bramley Community Centre for A celebration of the Soul, an informal sharing of music and visual art celebrating music in connection with the theme of Soul Music, in collaboration with Leeds Song musicians.
Inspired by interactive workshops led by Leeds Song musicians Philip Smith and Jonathan Fisher, members of the High Rise Music have spent twelve weeks experimenting with sound and visual art, creating unique responses to the theme of Soul Music.
Together the group have been exploring the genre of soul music and the many meaning behind the word. Audiences will hear the original music co-produced with Leeds Song musicians and view the visual art produced in response to the theme.
This is a free event, open to everyone. Refreshments will be provided, and there’s no need to book in advance, just turn up!
