Colin Currie Group debuts at the 30th Macau International Music Festival on 7 October 2016, performing music by Steve Reich in the same week as the composer’s 80th birthday.

The performance at Macau Cultural Centre includes Music for Pieces of Wood, Mallet Quartet and Drumming and sold out months in advance.

Whilst in Macau, Colin Currie also gives a masterclass to local percussion students and a presentation on the music of Steve Reich as part of the festival’s outreach programme.

The performance in Macau begins a busy 2016/17 season for the group which also includes returns to Tokyo and London, performances at the newly opened Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg and at Cambridge Music Festival. The group also adds Reich’s Tehillim to its repertoire.
