Chris Miggells Candlelit Concert: A Tribute to Gideon Klein

December 1 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

£5.00

Join us for an intimate candlelit concert with renowned local pianist and composer Chris Miggells, who will perform a special commission dedicated to Holocaust-era composer Gideon Klein. Known for his sold-out performances at the iconic Clipstone Headstocks, Chris brings his original, evocative compositions to new audiences, this time honouring Klein’s remarkable legacy. Chris will be joined by internationally acclaimed poet laureate Richard C. Bower for a unique performance combining poetry and piano in a reflection on remembrance and survival.

Inspired by Dr. David Fligg’s book Don’t Forget About Me, Chris has created a hauntingly beautiful piece that draws from Klein’s 1943 piano sonata, composed amidst the unimaginable horrors of Theresienstadt Concentration Camp. This evening offers a rare opportunity to experience music that celebrates resilience and the enduring power of art. Chris’s moving tribute will be released worldwide as a single on December 6th, coinciding with what would have been Klein’s birthday.
