Imaginary Landscapes brings together the spellbinding poetry of Chris Tutton, acclaimed author, performer and raconteur, with the semi improvised harp brilliance of international award-winning harpist, Lucy Nolan in a performance of words by Chris and music by Lucy. Together they have graced stages from the Hay Festival to the Royal Albert Hall, delighting audiences at sold-our shows across the UK.

Coined by Ned Sherrin as “the master of the short poem” his work has also been described as “absolutely beautiful” and “philosophy in poetry form”. Lucy Nolan is an award-winning international Harpist, passionate about challenging and evolving new styles of harp playing through collaboration, composition and performance.
