About this session
Bonjour Claude – Dr Amy Jolly and Dr Amy Sargen – are an experimental duo who create dynamic works through their shared performance practice. The duo came about through research into collaborative practice at RAM and RNCM respectively. Over four years, the pair have moved fluidly between their respective performer/composer roles to create a unique experimental practice that blurs improvisatory and notated practices within a collaborative and autoethnographic space – framed by the pairs’ innovative handling of audiovisual materials. Bonjour Claude appeared at eavesdropping presenting their research and first piece, Maps for Claude. The duo is currently working on a new version of Ballet, a piece exploring the relationship between ballet dancing and musical performance. Their work constantly changes and grows as their practice develops.

- Main act. Ensemble 50:50 Manchester
- Small groups. TBC
The cornerstone of The Noise Upstairs has always been its monthly held improv nights. During these events the audience is invited to participate as performers. By pulling names randomly (literally out of a hat) trios are formed and are given the stage to explore and exhaust their impromptu work. This encourages an open dialogue among musicians and artists, building dynamics that may not have formed organically otherwise. Currently, these nights are run
MANCHESTER at Fuel Cafe on the second Thursday of every month, from 8:30pm to 11:00pm
Venue: Fuel Cafe Bar, 448 Wilmslow Rd, Manchester M20 3BW
