Voices Now 8 — 10 May
Kathryn is Artist Curator, along with the wonderful folk singer Sam Lee, for this festival involving fifteen (fifteen!) choirs from around the UK for three days of singing at the legendary Roundhouse, London. Kathryn talks about the festival in this short clip. Kathryn and Sam have been working with the choirs, skipping along the highways and byways of folk music, to inspire some truly rousing performances given by hundreds of voices. See this video clip for a hint of the concerts in store. Kathryn chats about Northumbrian stories and music in a free workshop, “Kathryn Tickell’s Tales”, and joins the choirs for some performances. Full programme details here.
Kathryn and Sam played live on BBC Radio3’s In Tune which included a sneak preview of a new piece by Kathryn, “Where Dwells My Heart”, sung by the Holst Singers. If you missed it you can listen to the programme on iPlayer.
