  • By The John Rylands Library

The brainchild of electroacoustic composers David Berezan and Guillaume Dujat, hear the spaces around you come to life with sound, inspired and created by the building itself. Climb staircases through melodies of the sea, influenced by the library’s luminous lantern gallery. Hear the Library being ‘played’ in a multi-channel electromagnetic sound installation, designed by the ‘electrical veins’ of the library itself. The symphonies behind the tomes and the stones mean you’ll certainly never judge a book by its cover again.

Free, no need to book, just drop in.

Family friendly (7+yrs).
