manchester mid-day concerts society: earth song

We only see true beauty as it slips away.

Kantos make their debut at The Bridgewater Hall with Earth Song. Music and soundscapes will immerse you in a tale of nature’s beauty, of its hideous destruction, and ultimately, of defiance in the face of it all.
