OSMC is located at 15 Orange Street, Canterbury, which runs parallel to the main High Street shops and is situated just a few yards from the Marlowe Theatre. As you enter and walk through our own exclusive double doors at street level, you proceed up our sweeping staircase to the first floor (our Chaucer gallery) which then leads you through to the grand hall (our Becket Gallery), a former ballroom.
Oren Marshall is a pioneering player of acoustic and electric tuba who crosses between classical - jazz - improvised- world music. He has collaborated with the likes of Derek Bailey, Keith Tippet, the Pan-African Orchestra and the London Philharmonic. Oren explores ways of extending the tonal range of the tuba, opening up a totally new vocabulary. His groundbreaking solo work led to a nomination for the BBC Innovation in Jazz award. Tonight’s performance includes works for Oren Marshall’s unique five tuba set-up – five tubas connected together by a series of pipes and gadgetry.
