Neil Campbell Solo Concerts at Unity Theatre, Liverpool
At 8pm on Thursday and Friday 4th and 5th February 2010, Neil will play his first solo concerts of the year at the Unity Theatre. A mainstay on the Liverpool music scene as a solo guitarist for many years, Neil will now perform two intimate concerts for solo guitar to include special guests adding cello and soprano for particular performances.
In 2009 Neil staged a series of high profile performance events including 'Ghost Stories - A Night Opera' at Liverpool's St Luke’s (Bombed Out) Church (July 2009), St Georges Hall Concert Room (October 2009) and Birkenhead Priory, as part of the Wirral International Guitar Festival (November 2009). He also introduced, at St George's Hall, a new composition 'Frankenstein' for The Neil Campbell Collective and Sense of Sound Choir. These new large scale works married grand concepts with great architecture and stunning visuals, and will continue to be developed and staged at national and international levels throughout 2010.
Neil is very much looking forward to these solo concerts. He says: "Playing solo brings me back to the source of my music - to the state it is in when it is first composed and before layers of other instrumentation, visuals and other concepts are added. It is about picking up an instrument - in this case the classical guitar - and using it to create a more intimate, more direct communication between myself and the audience”.
Tickets are £8 (concessions £6). To purchase tickets visit Unity Theatre, Hope Place, Liverpool, L1 9BG or call the Box Office on 0151 709 4988 or online at The Unity Theatre web site.
