• Dance
Address: Malthouse Lane, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP2 7RA Telephone: 01722 320333 Event: Songs of the Bulbul - 7.30pm - Birdsong is ephemeral – like dance, it exists only in the moment— sung once, then lost to time. Nightingales, or “Bulbuls”, hold a special place in Persian culture, with their song representing a spiritual seeker, yearning for union with the divine. Songs of the Bulbul, a new dance work by Aakash Odedra with choreography by Rani Khanam and music by Rushil Ranjan, is inspired by the ancient Sufi myth of a bulbul captured and held in captivity. The beauty of this songbird’s melody serves as a metaphor for the fleeting moments of dance and an artist’s life. Rooted in the expansive music, dance, and poetry traditions of Sufism, this new work by two of the most outstanding Sufi Kathak artists performing in the world today emerges as a sensitive dialogue between the ferocious physicality of Kathak and the spiritual journey of Sufism, a path seeking unity with the Divine.

Address: Malthouse Lane, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP2 7RA Telephone: 01722 320333 Event: Hejira - Celebrating Joni Mitchell - 7.30pm - Hejira is a 7-piece band set up to celebrate and honour the masterpiece works of Joni Mitchell, mostly from the late ‘70s. Having released the albums The Hissing of Summer Lawns, Hejira, Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter and Mingus, Joni then toured briefly with a band formed from the crème de la crème of contemporaneous musicians (Metheny, Mays, Brecker, Pastorius and Alias). The tour was recorded, producing the outstanding live recording, Shadows And Light; it is from this period that the band Hejira is drawing the body of its repertoire. Comprising highly experienced, world-class musicians, Hejira is fronted by the brilliant Hattie Whitehead who not only has – in her own way – assimilated the poise, power and beauty of Joni’s vocals, but also plays guitar with Joni’s stylistic mannerisms. Expect an evening of the great songs from Mitchell’s back catalogue, such as Amelia, Woodstock, In France They Kiss On Main Street, Hejira, Black Crow,A Case of You, and Free Man In Paris.
