Elizabeth Alker hosts in front of a live audience at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, featuring new music by Daniel Avery, Aïsha Devi and Afrodeutsche arranged for orchestra.

Curated by Elizabeth alongside conductor André de Ridder, this event features the BBC Concert Orchestra lending its powerful sound to an eclectic range of pioneering artists. Vocalist and composer Aïsha Devi’s new piece brings her dark atmospheric sound to the orchestra alongside her own haunting vocals. Afrodeutsche reflects on her reaction to the racist abuse of England’s black footballers, and the DJ and producer Daniel Avery has a medley of his absorbing electronic music arranged by the boundary pushing London-based artist Quinta.
