Share this event

Fascinated by the rich and largely unearthed social history of Waterloo Bridge and its rebuilding during World War II by a predominantly female workforce comes a brand new work by composer and artist Claudia Molitor.

Collect a headset from Somerset House to begin your 40 minute musical experience that features new compositions by Molitor, with contributions from drum and synth duo AK/DK, folk band Stick in the Wheel and poet SJ Fowler. The Singing Bridge weaves you along Waterloo Bridge and its surrounding paths to give you time and space to consider your relationship to this bridge and its environs.

“An exquisitely beautiful, fragile work…”
The Scotsman on About Remember Me…, a desktop Opera

Commissioned by Totally Thames in partnership with Somerset House
Digital Release by NMC Recordings
Supported by Arts Council England and The Hinrichsen Foundation
