Bastille Day celebrations at Institut français du Royaume-Uni

Agathe Max, Nexcyia (Adam Wilkie-Dove), Charlotte Kaslin

The Institut français du Royaume-Uni in South Kensington is planning to celebrate 14 July 2021, Bastille Day, in style. They will be sharing on-line, on YouTube and Facebook, a concert which is being filmed with a live audience at the Institut on 6 July 2021. The concert will feature the cross-arts and cross-genre talents of multi-instrumentalist and composer Agathe Max, cellist Charlotte Kaslin who is a member of the De Beauvoir Trio, and Nexcyia (Adam Wilkie-Dove), an African-American/Scottish/French sound artist, experimental ambient musician and alumnus of the Royal College of Art.

The performers will be drawing inspiration from a mixed repertoire including pieces by French and British composers and their own compositions, melding classical and contemporary music with electronics. You can read (and hear) more about Nexcyia on The Wire, whilst Agathe Max's performance recent with pianist Anne Lovett at the Institut is available on YouTube.
