Friday Lunch: Woom
Friday 7 June 2019 | 1pm | Royal Festival Hall, Central Bar, Level 2
Lush, harmonious choral interpretations of well-loved songs by the likes of Radiohead and Frank Ocean, performed by a four-part all-female choir.
Formed of four women from south-east London, Woom transforms the familiar into something transcendental.
The individual voices weave together to transport the audience with cascading cadences and rich, building harmonies.
