An Introduction from the Festival Director, Prof Stephen Davismoon:
“It gives me a great deal of pleasure to introduce you to the 2025 Angel Field Festival programme. The mission for our festival has always been to bring international art and culture to the area of Everton – where our Creative Campus resides.
Again, we offer our neighbours a truly diverse set of events through Music, Drama, Dance and the Visual Arts – most of which have Storytelling at their heart. We will be bringing you stories from all over the world – from Louisiana to the Seychelles, via France, USA, China, Scandinavia and Nigeria as well as from artists much closer to home.
To open our festival, we have what will be a heart-stopping dance performance from the Dife Youth Ensemble from Louisiana which blends Classical Ballet with African, Jazz, Hip Hop dance traditions.
We are very excited to host the innovative electronic music band The Utopia Strong who with their psychedelic, ambient and drone-like soundscapes weave gentle polyrhythmic complexities and counts amongst its members the snooker legend Steve Davis!
Closer to home we are delighted to welcome The Savoy Jazzmen who have been led by their bass player, Peter Swensson, since his demobilization after completing his National Service in the British Army in 1960! They will treat us to a fabulous Dixie-flavoured jazz set.
Our resident Hope Metropolitan Orchestra and Choir will treat us to a fabulous evening of Mozart – featuring some familiar pieces alongside those that are seldom performed.
We are also proud to host a performance of Waterside, an emotional, thought-provoking and magical journey that unravels the culture of family, memories, and dreams that emanate from Niger Delta.
Our programme will continue to beguile through a concert of music of a reflective nature featuring works by the composers Erik Satie, John Cage and David Revill. 2025 will mark the centenary of Erik Satie’s passing; John Cage was deeply influenced by the work of Satie; David Revill whom passed away far too soon in early 2024 was well-known to John Cage and whose work had a profound effect upon his musical output.
The East Meets West - A Musical Interpretation of Poem’s Savors concert from the Chinese pianist Lei Cai Professor of Piano at Ouachita Baptist University, USA and the US-based Korean concert-pianist, Hee-kyung Juhn will offer us a scintillating musical journey by counterpointing works from Asian and western composers including works by Hua Lin.
The Storytelling and Music performance The Hairy Girl by Kersti Ståbi and Directed by Abbi Patrix in some ways continues this East meets Asian theme where Kersti Ståbi remixes this old Scandinavian tale of The Hairy Girl with the power of Japanese Taiko drumming - music you can hear with your eyes, with its martial arts influences and dynamic use of the drummer's body.
Our festival reaches its grand finale by hosting Moutya, a soulful and evocative performance steeped in Seychelles' history. Recently inscribed as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, Moutya is more than a dance; it’s a profound expression of freedom, resilience, and unity. Born out of the hardships endured by enslaved Africans, Moutya became a means of secret communication and a form of resistance. Today, it is a proud symbol of Seychellois identity and Creole heritage.
Please, come and join us for what will be a celebratory festival of arts from around the world."
