Sarah Small

Good Again?

A Cycling Concert Tour

A concert tour with a difference. Cycling between venues, viola da gamba player Sarah Small is taking a slower and greener route to reach audiences all over the UK.

Disillusioned by the lack of support for sustainable touring within the arts, along with concerns about the impact and cost of audience travel from rural areas to venues in cities, she’s taking matters into her own hands and cycling from venue to venue to share her programme ‘Good Again?’ with audiences far and wide.

Centred around the title work ‘Good Againe’ by Tobias Hume, this programme for solo viola da gamba features music expressing the feelings of grief, contemplation, and hope felt by many of us during these unstable times, along with tales from the road that remind us of the beauty in slow travel.

The programme includes Marais’ Les Voix Humaines (human voices), Forqueray’s La Girouette (the weather vane), Sainte-Colombe’s Les Pleurs (tears) and Hume’s galvanising The Spirit of Gambo.

Please note: please check the tide times ahead of travel. To attend the performance, you will need to reach Lindisfarne by late morning - the perfect excuse to spend the day exploring the island!
The performance will last approximately one hour, finishing in plenty of time before the crossing reopens.
