SUMMARY:What If? – An Interactive Recital
DESCRIPTION:What If?  \nAn uplifting and moving concert and play combined\, exploring love\, loss\, war\, and women’s suffrage through song – where you\, the audience\, get to choose the direction of the story. \nKieran Rayner baritone\nGamal Khamis piano \nWhat If? is a play and song recital combined – with a twist. At pivotal moments in the story\, the audience votes to decide what the protagonist should do\, changing the plot and musical programme. \nSet in 1914\, What If? features multiple characters acted and sung by Kieran\, with piano and sound effects played by Gamal. Our story explores love\, loss\, friendship\, war\, and women’s suffrage\, all while giving the audience agency over the direction of the narrative. \nWhichever paths are picked\, we guarantee a fulfilling and uplifting experience: an entertaining script connecting a rich selection of German and English songs\, including Schubert\, Robert and Clara Schumann\, Ethel Smyth\, Butterworth\, and Finzi\, alongside contemporary composers. \n\nWhat If? \n\n \n  \n \n \nTickets: https://rosl.org.uk/product/armistice-day-concert-what-if/.

SUMMARY:What If? – Samling Arts Residency
DESCRIPTION:Kieran Rayner and Gamal Khamis are one of two duos to be successfully granted a Samling and Song Residency. During this intensive week\, they will be developing and polishing their interactive play/recital\, What If? – a World War 1 era love story with 8 possible endings\, where the audience gets to choose what happens next. The story is illuminated by beautiful German and English art song throughout. Performance details to follow. \n  \nMore Details about Samling and Song from samling.org.uk: \nThe response to the first round of applications for our new Samling and Song residencies for singer and pianist duos has been fantastic. We asked for proposals that present art-song in new ways\, to new audiences across the UK and which explore repertoire by under-represented groups. \nThe first two duos chosen to benefit are mezzo-soprano Shakira Tsindos and pianist Lana Bode and baritone Kieran Rayner and pianist Gamal Khamis. Over the next few months they will work with their project mentors before spending a week at Marchmont to refine and rehearse their programmes. The variety and imagination of the applications we received made it clear that art-song has a lively future and we are looking forward to following the two selected projects through to fruition.
