Late Works at Cafe Koko

Late Works at Cafe Koko

Concept:

The fifth iteration of the original concept of Late Works, where a group of musicians spontaneously improvise music in response to painted folding dressing screens. The screen itself stands in front of both the audience and the musicians, with everyone - including the musicians - experiencing it simultaneously, and for the first time.

Variations:

This time only one screen was made (by Nathalie Hollis) instead of the traditional two. An accompanying selection of Nathalie's works were exhibited in Koko's gallery, on show throughout the week of the 11th September.

The musicians were asked to respond for 20 minutes to each side of Nathalie's screen, in two sets, followed by a jam.

A second performance to one side of Nathalie's screen (Energisers & Drainers) was also carried out by a separate band at the Art Car Boot Fair on Saturday 16th September.
