Pegasus Opera Company: Windrush, The Journey

Thursday, June 6th - Saturday June 8th, 2024

Celebrating Black classical composers...

Pegasus Opera Company in partnership with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra  present Windrush, The Journey. For more than 30 years, Pegasus Opera Company has fearlessly paved the way for diverse talent in opera.

Today, we’re paying tribute to Windrush, showcasing a rich tapestry of music and storytelling, and celebrating Black classical composers: past, present and future. Through the outstanding music of Chevalier de Saint Georges, Richard Thompson and Des Oliver – three composers who represent different eras of Black history – we’ll honour the legacy of the Windrush generation with an exciting fusion of classical music, jazz and blues. 

A fascinating immersive exhibition showcasing the work of Black British composers through music, photographs and local Windrush testimony will be showcased in the foyer of the Bernie Grant Centre in the week of the performances.
