Kings Place’s annual flagship Unwrapped series continues its exploration of the sounds of the city with 2021’s London Unwrapped which returns in full force this September, kicking off with a line-up of composer/performers whose music reflects their heritage and London’s multi-cultural influences.

Seamlessly blending her Jamaican heritage with her London upbringing, cellist and singer-songwriter Ayanna Witter-Johnson has previously been a guest of both Cello Unwrapped and Venus Unwrapped. Ayanna’s music comes from ‘a healthy diet of classical piano and cello studies alongside absorbing pop culture, soul, jazz, reggae, hip-hop, and RnB’ and exemplifies London’s melting pot of cultures. Her compositions have recently been performed by the LSO/Rattle, and by Chineke! while the concert at Kings Place is an opportunity to hear her as a performer.
