Join us at Kettle's Yard for this year’s New Music concert series, programmed by our New Music Curator Tom McKinney. The first concert features Rakhi Singh.
In recent years Rakhi Singh has become an iconic figurehead for artists who are seeking ways to make music differently. As director of the magnificent Manchester Collective, Rakhi has appeared with the group in venues all over the world, and in the UK Rakhi has toured in venues ranging from a converted garage by Strangeways Prison, to the BBC Proms. As a soloist, Rakhi is also a major presence on the new music circuit, performing programmes that showcase her musical sensitivity, virtuosity and unique energy in works from the Baroque to the present day.
Programme to include works by Alex Groves, György Kurtág, David Lang, Oliver Leith, Kaija Saariaho, Salvatore Sciarrino, traditional Bulgarian and Danish folk music, bluegrass and J.S. Bach.
