Gavin Fairhall Lever will perform at The Met, Bury on July 3rd, 2026. Lever is a composer and performer whose work blends elements of contemporary classical music with influences from jazz improvisation and electronic soundscapes. His compositions often feature extended techniques for piano and incorporate field recordings, creating layered and atmospheric pieces. He frequently explores themes relating to memory, landscape, and the interplay between acoustic and digital environments.

The Met, located in Bury, Greater Manchester, is a multi-arts venue housed within a former Victorian theatre built in 1900 as the Bury Opera House. Originally designed by William Mervyn, it underwent significant refurbishment in the 1980s following a period of closure and near-demolition. It reopened as The Met in 1984, transitioning from a primarily operatic space to one accommodating a diverse programme including theatre, music, dance, comedy, and visual arts. The building retains many of its original architectural features while incorporating modern facilities. It serves as a key cultural hub for the local community and regularly hosts both local and nationally recognised artists. The Met is managed by Bury Council.
