Composer, musician and performer Renell Shaw presents the live concert premiere of his Ivor Novello Award-winning The Windrush Suite — a heartfelt tribute to his Caribbean roots and the trailblazing Windrush generation who arrived in Britain in 1948, building lives, community, and culture against the odds.
Featuring a world-class live 12-strong ensemble of distinguished musicians, including multi-instrumentalist Orphy Robinson MBE; renowned classical crossover cellist Ayanna Witter-Johnson; Olivier-award winning composer Romarna Campbell on drums and legendary tenor saxophonist Jean Toussaint.
The second half of the evening, Renell Shaw presents Echo in the Bones, his electrifying follow-up to The Windrush Suite. This new work explores what it means to be “Black British” through the eyes of the Windrush Generation’s children — weaving music, history, and storytelling into a moving portrait of resistance, legacy, and belonging.
This is more than a concert — it’s an evening of connection, reflection, and celebration. A London performance you won’t want to miss at music venue Kings Place, Kings Cross.
