Hannah Peel & Beibei Wang: The Endless Dance

Play. Freedom. A joyful mix of sounds.

The Endless Dance is the first collaborative album from Northern Irish producer and composer Hannah Peel and Chinese percussionist Beibei Wang. It’s grounded in the strength of ancient concepts but comes alive with the joy and freedom of playing together. In it, Peel and Wang travel through the 24 solar terms of the Chinese calendar with a wide range of sounds– synths and prepared piano alongside traditional and unconventional percussion.

Both genre-defying, storied artists, Peel and Wang met while working on Manchester Collective’s 2023 album NEON. The pair decided to collaborate on a series of performances, beginning with a fully improvised show at Kings Place in London, June 2023. They immediately began to map out a new, imagined space through sound. The artistic freedom and chemistry of these performances led to The Endless Dance, documenting their shared musical landscape, informed by the flora and fauna that emerge and retreat through the seasons.

Catch these remarkable musicians bringing their shared creations to Sage Two this October. It’s going to be magnificent.
