Celebrating one of the most influential bands in music history, Joy Division’s legendary bassist Peter Hook & Manchester Camerata are performing their acclaimed The Sound Of Joy Division Orchestrated collaboration.
Curated by Hooky alongside musical director Tim Crooks, The Sound Of Joy Division Orchestrated sees some 50 plus artists, musicians and guest vocalists come together to revisit the post punk elements that shaped Joy Division’s ground breaking sound, aligned with a full orchestra to reflect and respect the spirt which defines their heritage.
The Sound Of Joy Division Orchestrated is the first time a founder member of the group has developed such a project, pouring heart and soul into the orchestral representations of the band’s post punk repertoire as the set takes in many seminal Joy Division classics as well some less well known tracks from the canon.
Tickets go on sale on Friday 5th March at 9am.
You can also see this event in London at the London Palladium on Friday 10th September 2021.
