Event details

Since 2013 we have run an annual get-together for our postgraduate students in composition at the University of Southampton, which involves two days of activities including: presentations from students and guest composers; workshops with visiting performers; and sharing meals (and ideas). Previous guests include composers Eivind Buene, Tansy Davies, Laurence Crane, James Saunders and Newton Armstrong and performers Mark Knoop (piano), Juliet Fraser (soprano), Haakon Stene (percussion), Shila Anaraki (dancer) and Oliver Coates (cello). The Get-Together has become one of the highlights of our academic year, and we welcome anyone who is interested to join us.
