The Colin Currie Group
The Colin Currie Group brings together a flexible line-up of exceptional musicians to perform some of the most compelling music of recent decades.
Founded by Colin Currie, the Group is especially known for its close association with the music of Steve Reich, combining remarkable rhythmic precision with a vivid sense of colour, energy and movement. Its work ranges from landmark pieces of the contemporary repertoire to new commissions, always shaped by a spirit of collaboration and a direct, communicative approach to performance.
"Held together by eye contact, ear contact, intimate understanding of the score and collective breathing, the performance was both aurally and visually exciting – a work of art and also one of craft at its most disciplined and alert."
