Salon Imaginaire Series
Inspired by West Dean College of Arts and Conservation's founder
Edward James' contribution to art and music, the seven-part Salon
Imaginaire series will run throughout 2018-2019, tracing the
creative lineage between artists he supported during his lifetime,
and some of the imaginative worlds created by music makers at work
today.
Salon Imaginaire is supported by PRS Foundation's The Open Fund.
Salon Imaginaire #1 The Oak Hall, West Dean College, 12th
of October 2018 8-10pm
Performing at this event are Mary Hampton, Guitarist C. Joynes,
Terence Allbright, and Angela Zanders. This is a Pay What You
Decide event.
Salon Imaginaire #2 The Old Library, West Dean College, 9th
November 2018 8-10pm
This live concert features performances by some of the most
imaginative music makers working today. Collectress are a quartet
whose collective ethos, aesthetic and approach is inspired and
informed by the practices which complement their performing lives:
visual art, composition for film and TV, dance for camera, music
informatics and free improvisation. Sonic Pleasure is famed for her
unique crafting of sound from bricks and masonry, reducing much of
her instrumentation to dust by the end of a concert. This is a Pay
What You Decide event.

Pay What You Decide works by enabling audiences to attend shows
without paying for a ticket beforehand, but tickets can be reserved
prior to a performance. Then on exiting the show, you have the
opportunity to pay what you decide you want to, or can afford to,
based on your overall enjoyment of the performance. Suggested price
bands are £5 and £10. Please ensure you have arrived and collected
your tickets 15 minutes before the show starts in order to secure
your seats. At the end of the show, you can decide what to pay, by
cash on the door.
