Explore the bold possibilities of instrumental and electronic music with principal cellist Sébastien van Kuijk and his genre-defying duo Ambassade.

Distorting and transforming the cello and piano through electronic touches, Ambassade creates ethereal and evocative soundscapes that soar to otherworldly dimensions. With a kaleidoscope of inspirations from rock to electronic to classical music, Sébastien van Kuijk (cello) and Thomas Valverde (piano/keyboard) journey through prisms of colours and musical references, suspending time and space with their improvised sets that take you on a cosmic trip of intriguing and mesmerising sounds.

Part of The Lock-In series at Kings Place:

As the lights go down in Hall One, we move across to Hall Two to grab a drink and settle in for a revelatory late-night series. Curated by Aurora Principal Players, each intimate and informal performance takes you on a journey of musical discovery across diverse genres and art forms. Expect eclectic musical encounters that unfold in new and surprising ways, from entering otherworldly dimensions in electronic music to learning the steps to a rip-roaring hoedown to meeting a pterodactyl in the most unlikely of circumstances.

These informal events take place in Hall Two, with bar service available in the Hall throughout. Doors open at 9.15pm with live music starting approximately 9.45pm. Events last c. 60 minutes.

Please note that this is a standing event. Seating is limited and cannot be reserved in advance.
