Corey Mwamba presents the best in new improvised music. Amongst the selections comes the Portuguese group Lantana, whose members call forth a range of elemental textures - cavernous voices and undulating drones which slip and slide over strings and a glitchy, electronic storm. Lucie Vítková and Leo Chang, meanwhile, soar high in their sonorous collaboration, Religion, with probing existential questions at its heart.

Elsewhere in the show, found objects offer textures that rise and fall ornamentally over long synth tones, whilst resonant accordion and harmonica riffs bellow outwards to create an immersive vortex of sound. Plus saxophonist Caroline Kraabel and cellist Khabat Abas tease all manner of noises and shapes from their instruments - sinewy runs and vocal exhalations bounce off grainy turbulence and bubbling discord.
