Grace Davidson, soprano
I feel happy that after 20 or so years of performing and recording as a completely freelance singer, I still come away from my work loving it and wanting to do more.
Sean Quinn, Composer
Giving people experiences of learning and listening are some of the most exciting prospects of my job as a composer
Solem Quartet
Our repertoire is vast – it is one of the reasons the four of us love playing quartets. We play music from all eras, and especially enjoy playing traditional repertoire alongside contemporary music. But one composer whose works we return to again and again is Bartók.
Merel Vercammen, violinist
The experience of a live concert is what has always inspired me most; the atmosphere and vibrations of a hall or special place, the expectations, the excitement, the communication, the feeling of tension and releasing tension. What I love about a live concert experience is the feeling that you are creating a unique moment in time, in history even, in which everything is special.
