"Manchester Collective put on a very good show and are impressive performers"

#review #manchester #music

REVIEW: Shaker Loops

The staging for the Manchester Collective’s performance of John Adams’ ‘Shaker Loops’ at the RNCM is very simple. Seven lights stand in a semi-circle around the collective, with eight more above them, all orange or yellow and reinforced by a cloud from the haze machine behind the performers.
