SUMMARY:CBSO 2025/25: An Evening with Davóne Tines
DESCRIPTION:An encounter with the spiritual across the centuries with Haydn\, Carlos Simon and Davóne Tines.\n\n\n\nThis inspiring concert will invigorate the senses and move the spirit. Haydn’s turbulent Symphony No. 44 (subtitled ‘Mourning’) is part elegy\, part whirlwind – stormy and tender by turn. Simon’s Amen\, written two and a half centuries later\, evokes the exuberant experience of worship in African American Pentecostal churches. It ultimately reaches – as Simon puts it – a ‘frenzied state’. For baritone Davóne Tines\, music can change the world – if we let it. “You have to try to model the world that you want to live in” he says\, and tonight he curates and performs in the first Birmingham performance of Mass Reorchestrated – which weaves music by Bach into an urgent\, multi-voiced exploration of musical America as it is and as it might be. \n\n\n\n\n\nArtists\n\n\n\nChristian Reif  Conductor \n\n\n\nDavóne Tines  Baritone \n\n\n\nCity of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra  \n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nHaydn  Symphony No.44 (Mourning)\, 22mins \n\n\n\nCarlos Simon  Amen\, 12mins \n\n\n\nCaroline Shaw/ Davóne Tines  Mass Reorchestrated\, 45mins

SUMMARY:Without by Neil Reidman
DESCRIPTION:Reidman’s acclaimed show\, chronicles one man’s life\, from the Windrush era through to the modern day.  With humour and pathos the story charts the challenges and obstacles he faces throughout his journey from boyhood to man. \n\n\n\nNeil was nominated for ‘Best Male Lead Actor in a Play’ at the British Black Theatre Awards 2024 for his performance in this intimate\, moving play. He was last seen at MAC in the sold out musical drama ‘Our Little Hour – The Walter Tull Story’ and we are delighted to welcome Neil back for Windrush weekend to share his own story. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n Reidman’s show is a masterpiece in acting  \n\n\n\n-Broadway Baby

SUMMARY:Pay What You Choose: Pressure
DESCRIPTION:With a screenplay written by Horace Ové and fellow Trinidadian author Sam Selvon\, Pressure follows a Black family in west London; from the parents who came from Trinidad as part of the Windrush generation with their first son\, now part of the Black Power Movement\, to their younger British-born son Tony (Herbert Norville). As he leaves school and encounters prejudice on individual and institutional levels\, Tony struggles to find acceptance in the country he grew up in yet has no Caribbean home he can dream of returning to. \nA groundbreaking and authentic exploration of the anxieties of an emerging second-generation of West Indians in Britain\, Pressure (1975) is a significant title in the history of British Cinema\, and remains as relevant now as it ever was — with its themes of police corruption\, discrimination and employment on an individual and institutional level.

SUMMARY:Letters\, Promises and Belonging: The Children Of Windrush
DESCRIPTION:Letters\, Promises and Belonging: The Children of Windrush is a powerful and intimate stage production blending dance and spoken word to bring untold stories to life.

A moving tribute to resilience\, identity\, and connection. \n\n\n\nDirected by Tonia Daley-Campbell  \n\n\n\nFollowed by an interactive Q&A session with the cast and director.

SUMMARY:Twawsi: The World As We See It
DESCRIPTION:Human life is fleeting\, the world is still unfolding…\n\n\n\nRedefining dance from the African Diaspora\, ACE dance and music’s new double bill presents two powerful contrasting visions of our world today. \n\n\n\n‘ECHOES OF DUST’ – choreographed by Serge Aimé Coulibaly\, with creative contributions from Sigué Sayouba. When the world trembles\, what remains of our humanity? When all seems lost\, what hope can we still hold on to? In a world torn apart by war\, disaster and the invisible collapse of human connection; seven individuals find themselves stranded in the heart of chaos. Confronting the remnants of a shattered world\, stripped of certainty and memory they stumble\, fight\, and protest; with each encounter\, a voice is reclaimed. \n\n\n\n‘LETLALO’ – choreographed by Vincent Mantsoe Letlalo\, meaning “Skin” in Mantsoe’s native tongue ‘Sotho’\, draws from African\, Indigenous\, and contemporary dance languages to explore the deep connection between humanity and the earth. Rooted in ancestral wisdom and inspired by nomadic cultures\, the performance reflects on the quiet strength of communities living in harmony. It examines the layers beneath the surface\, exploring the true essence of the human spirit\, while evoking themes of power\, unity\, serenity\, and interconnectedness.
