Part of the rainy days 2025 on -
Today’s music is overly intellectual? The 2025 festival rainy days grabs this cliché by the throat, choosing «bodies» as its theme. Bodies and physicality have always interested the arts. Especially in music, the subject is ambiguous, the idea that the body cannot do without spirit, nor the spirit without the body, more than a bon mot. The multitude of approaches to the body and bodies is reflected in the festival’s programme, once again designed for diehard fans of contemporary music and those who are simply curious alike, offering something for almost all age groups.

What you’ll hear and see

The music

  • Musique de Ian Chambers et de compositeurs anonymes

The artists

  • Iain Chambers electronics

Spanning music, sound design and the spoken word,

this work articulates the lived experience of voice hearing through overlapping soundworlds, musical fragments and processed voices. It is a world first, created in collaboration with people who hear voices; a psychiatrist; and a doctor and a composer with family members who have experienced voice hearing. Knowing and understanding the experience of voice hearing is one of the first steps towards a compassionate response, the aim being to reduce the stigma associated with this phenomenon and to raise awareness, thereby improving outcomes for those affected.

Designed and produced by Viet-Xuan Elen Williams, in collaboration with CoreArts London and Natalie Shoham
