A one off acoustic performance from one of the world’s number one percussion talents.

Austrian percussionist Manu Delago performs a very special acoustic show at Wilton’s Music Hall. After a spellbinding sold out performance at Rich Mix Manu will be taking a step away from the electronics for a one off acoustic performance.

Having collaborated with the likes of Cinematic Orchestra and Bjork, Manu Delago has made a name for himself as one of the world’s most in demand percussionist. He is viewed by most as the world’s foremost hang drummer.

Manu Delago recent solo offerings have been released on Tru Thoughts and clearly demonstrate his ability to explore a vast array of sounds, ranging from sweet and delicate vocal lines with colourful Hang accompaniment, all the way through to chunky, electronic beats. The sound of the band is mature and well balanced, they have a real understanding of orchestration, moulding and continually changing the texture to create a different sound world with each piece.

The live show of Manu Delago Handmade is a definite must-see. The performance is delicate and sophisticated, moving with ease between heavily rhythmic and free-flowing spherical sections. Each of the four performers takes on several instruments, displaying the great musical diversity of every member of the ensemble.
