FROM DUSK ′TIL DAWN
A live, living encounter with timeworn stone and contemporary stillness, filling the iconic Hackney Church with music that travels through sound, sleep, and starlight.
6 November 2025This is not just a concert series. It’s an invitation to explore.
Across a series of live events at Hackney Empire and Hackney Church, the season invites audiences to step beyond the familiar and into the extraordinary. From the deep seas of Explorers to the lunar dreams of From Dusk ’til Dawn, and the cosmic expanse of THE EXOPLANETS, each concert is a journey through sound, story, and the unknown.
Two concerts remain in the season — don’t miss out!

THE EXOPLANETS
A cosmic story of love, loss, and the power of curiosity from CLS and award-winning theatre company curious directive, featuring music by seven visionary composers.
13 March 2026We are a chamber orchestra with big ideas. From exhilarating concert programmes to large-scale multi-arts productions, and from big operas to intimate one-to-one moments in hospitals and care homes, we believe that music should be part of everyone’s life.
We explore what it means to be human through our collaborative and courageous work, staying curious and discovering new things along the way.
Music is so much more than dots on a page. Come and discover with us.
