Peter Boardman: a tribute

Composer of the Month

Nick Williams composed 1520 Sedgewick Avenue — “a celebration of the creativity and anger of early hip hop” — to be performed at the exciting lunchtime concert featuring Spelk on 7 May 2022. Interviewed by fellow composer Steve Crowther, Williams describes the unusual nature of that concert’s programme, his background, how he works and reveals which pieces of music he’d select for that Desert Island

Review: Gemini (October 2021)

Paul Conway has written an extensive review of Late Music’s October evening concert, featuring Gemini, which included premieres of pieces by Sadie Harrison and Morag Galloway. Of Harrison’s Fire in Song, he notes “this work made a strong impression on disc, but seeing it performed live was an even more affecting experience”. You can experience that difference yourself at one of our concerts!

Listen: Podcast Interview series

In a series of podcasts on our revitalised “Listen” page, composer Hayley Jenkins interviews Late Music performers and fellow composers about pieces performed at this season’s Late Music concerts. Just added (4 June 2022): Hayley talks to Amy-Jayne Milton and Henrietta Hill from Trilogy Ensemble about their evening concert on 4th June.
