Peter Gregson

Thu 19 August, doors 7pm

10/8 + bf; under 26s 5 +bf

The Lemon Tree Lounge

Thought we'd try something a wee bit different down at The Lemon Tree.

23 year old cellist Peter Gregson is a pioneer of contemporary music and ambassador of a new generation of musicians for whom the use of new technologies is increasingly a matter of course.

Ever had an electric sensor cello suit on? Or performed at a concert with a live comment feed displayed on the wall? Or composed musical Twitter poems? Cellist Peter Gregson has done all of it of his own accord and is being acclaimed for it not only by classical sector, but also by the media and technology world. His pioneering work in refreshing the classical genre earned him the prestigious Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland award for music in November 2008 as well as membership to the Courvoisier Future 500. In January 2010 Peter was selected Creative in Residence (Music) by the Hospital Club London for 2010/2011.
