New release – Poetry versus Orchestra

A book, an album, an experience full of modern poetry by performance poet Hollie McNish fused with contemporary music written by conductor Jules Buckley and Chris Wheeler – played by the Metropole Orkest.

Socio-critical, political, emotional, thought-provoking – reflected in both, the spoken word, teeming with energy as well as the music played by the world’s leading pop & jazz orchestra.

A layer of sound, complementing the powerful poetry and creating a plethora of atmospheres and feelings.

“It is one of the biggest honours to have these poems read, thought about and composed into music by what I consider one of the world’s best and most approachable orchestras.”
