Finished the PhD!

As some of you may know I had my viva voce examination for my PhD thesis yesterday. It all went smoothly and I got a straight pass! 

If you are curious to see what this was all about, at the bottom of this post you'll find a link to the portfolio website with the videos of the pieces I created as part of my research. Some of it has been published here already but most of it hasn't, so you're bound to find something you haven't seen before! Check it out here:

The Music Theatre Hub #2

MC

My "Spindle" piece for harp will be performed on January 28th at The Music Theatre Hub by the lovely harpist  Maria-Christina (and her 7 pedals) along her own works and those from creative technologist Michele Panegrossi! You can find more information and tickets for the event in the links below.


The Music Theatre Hub is a platform for new works combining music and theatre to be intimately performed, heard, seen and talked over. It's a series of events taking place every three months, a laboratory in which new and work-in-progress pieces investigating musico-theatrical possibilities get presented and discussed. There's no Opera, nor Musical, but a search for new music theatre genres.

We're really excited to launch our second date, 28th January 2015, 7.30pm, featuring electro-acoustic harpist Maria-Christina, composer Andreas Papapetrou and creative technologist Michele Panegrossi. They'll be exploring new forms of music theatre and how different disciplines get together to create new, unique work. Spindles, maypole game, the handsomest room in town, binaural theatre, bowed strings. This event will also feature a ‘headphones only’ piece, so spectators are asked to bring their best headphones along!

Taking place in the intimate and secret Chapel behind The Gallery Cafe (St. Margaret’s House), The Music Theatre Hub will also feature a post-performance talk with Prof. Paul Alan Barker, from Royal Central School of Speech & Drama. The place is small, so you get a good chance to get close to the artists, who are two meters away! See you there! And don’t forget to bring your best set of headphones!
