Kathryn continues work on spnm’s ‘Folk from Here’ project, with workshops and rehearsals alongside Kuljit Bhamra, Marie Fielding, Jonathan Mayer and Julian Sutton. The project showcases new work by emerging composers and repertoire created by the artists involved. It culminates in selected UK performances during May – July.
