On Thursday, 22nd May 2025, grab your finest evening wear and head over to Metronome in Nottingham for an event that promises to fuse music, imagery, and a sprinkle of emotional recovery. British cellist Matthew Barley leads the charge with an eclectic mix of tunes from composers like Anna Meredith and Bach, as well as some of his own creations. But wait, the fun doesn't just stop there. He's throwing in a dash of improvisation and a bit of electronics for good measure, crafting a theatrical spectacle that's bound to sweep you off your feet.

Now, if you think that's all you get, think again. The performance, slated for 7:45pm, is just the beginning. After you've been thoroughly moved by the music, stick around for a post-concert chinwag at 9:15pm. This is your chance to dive into the story behind "Light Stories," which is a personal tapestry of Barley's teenage escapades with trauma and healing. It's all woven together by the magic of music, highlighting resilience and growth. So, come along for an evening that promises to be both moving and a bit of a revelation.
