At the centre of every noisenight is a 60-80 minute classical set. We platform international soloists and ensembles while also giving opportunities to outstanding new artists. All noisenights take place in gig venues where you get to experience classical music up close.
Live music needs your backing more than ever. Backing a noisenight means getting tickets to hear the world's best performers in grassroots venues and being part of a community working for a positive future for live music. To put it simply, you giving your backing will make this gig happen and secure you a ticket.
After a noisenight reaches its funding target, we e-mail all backers to confirm that it’s going ahead and a small amount of extra tickets will be made available. Tickets are released in four stages, which increase in price the closer to the event they're purchased. Book early to get the best price.
Please note that all tickets to this noisenight are standing by default. If you have specific access requirements please get in touch prior to purchasing your ticket here. Due to the venue's license, this event is 14+ and all under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
jasdeep singh degun
Jasdeep Singh Degun stands out as one of the most innovative and awarded sitarists of his generation. Born in Leeds, he masterfully blends Indian classical music with contemporary influences.
For this performance, he’ll be joined by tabla player Harkiret Bahra to present a traditional ‘baithak’ - a ‘sit-down gathering’ of Indian classical music. Usually seen on the sold-out stages of the Queen Elizabeth Hall, Barbican Centre, and WOMAD Festival, this baithak is a rare opportunity to witness Jasdeep’s skill up close in the cosy and intimate setting of Stoke Newington’s Old Church.
Signed to Real World Records, Jasdeep’s latest album Jogkauns was his first purely Indian classical album. Recorded with tabla player Harkiret Bahra, Jogkauns offers a deeply immersive listening experience, rooted in the Imdad-Khani gharana — the North Indian classical tradition in which Degun has trained.
In recognition of his outstanding contributions, Degun was awarded the Songlines Best Newcomer Award, an Asian Achievers Award, and made history as the first sitar player and British-Asian musician to win the Royal Philharmonic Society 'Instrumentalist' award in 2024.
