Inspired by musical traditions from around the world, and the natural world itself, Making Tracks brings together eight extraordinary musicians from deep-rooted musical cultures to create brand new, original music.
It is an entirely unique collaboration, based around the idea that intercultural music can foster a deeper appreciation of the cultures taking part – and lead to incredible musical moments. Artists to be announced in June.
Since 2019, Making Tracks has brought world class music from all corners of the globe to a network of leading venues throughout the UK.
