Avant-garde British composer and multi-disciplinary artist Klein will bring a new thrilling, inimitable live show to the Barbican this January. Working at the intersection of composed music, theatre and song, this South London artist defies categorisation. Her new album Harmattan, released on the renowned classical label Pentatone in November 2021, expands our notions of what classical music means today. Live, these explorations are taken further. Her impulse to playfully experiment and push boundaries arrive centre stage, inviting audiences into Klein's unique sound universe. Klein returns to the Barbican's music programme following her opening set for Moor Mother at Milton Court Concert Hall in October 2019. Grime superstar Jawino opens the night, followed by a second support set from Grime MC Izabelle ‘Lioness' Fender which then merges into Klein's performance.
