An evening of atmospheric, heart-warming, cosy and deeply moving lullabies and the stories around them performed by a local community choir. Over the past two years, The Lullaby Project has been crafting a portrait of Jersey through the intimate lullabies sung to its children. These concerts are the first public concerts of the Lullaby Choir performing a selection of lullabies in Farsi, Urdu, Dutch, Māori, and English. These pieces have been specially arranged by composers Beth Allen, Janet Swan, Carol Donaldson, Thabo Mkwananzi, Katie Rose Bennett, and Esther Rose Parkes. The choir is led by Esther Rose Parkes, with support from fellow artist Susanne Kudielka and is a unique mix of individuals with varying levels of experience in singing united by a shared passion for lullabies and music. The Lullaby Project is curated and produced by artists Esther Rose Parkes and Susanne Kudielka with The Moving Arts Collective and co-commissioned by ArtHouse Jersey. It has received support from The One Foundation, Jersey Community Foundation with funds from the Channel Islands Lottery and a Connect Me Government Grant. Saturday 30 November & Saturday 7 December, 6pm-7.30pm Tickets available on Eventbrite: https://www.jersey.com/things-to-do/events/listings/the-lullaby-choir-concerts/
