This event has now sold out.

Spitalfields Music is committed to supporting composers and musicians from communities who are under-represented in the musical world.

Each year, through our Open Call programme, we select three composers and provide mentoring, training and performance opportunities, which culminate in this showcase.

MEET THE ARTISTS

Lola de la Mata presents NULLA 0, a monolith, a sound art project about agency – amplifying voices that are often othered, while sharing narratives gathered through conversations with participants who identify across non-binary, womxn and women (cis/trans) which have typically been omitted from our collective histories.

Chisara Agor has created an installation to explore the philosophical concept of ‘metaxy’ through the idea of being/feeling seen and unseen, how this can transform, and how we can experience this through sound and art.

Anna Pool’s piece examines the transformative power of faith on people and place, both through the impact that faith communities have had on Spitalfields itself, and the personal faith journeys of individuals from East London and beyond.

The presentations will be followed by a Q&A session. Spitalfields Music thank Help Musicians UK for their magnificent support of Open Call and musicians everywhere.

Produced by Spitalfields Music in partnership with Rich Mix. With support from Help Musicians UK.
