Welcome to Manchester, remixed: KANTOS X ARGH KiD
From the electricity of the derby to the late-night beats of Canal Street, from Turing’s silent genius to Pankhurst’s fearless pursuits. Join us for a mash-up of choral music, electronics and spoken word for an event that gives the city’s story a unique soundtrack.
