Illuminate is a project that seeks to highlight and celebrate the creativity of women both as composers and performers. Illuminate concerts feature both commissioned works from early career women composers and historical works, celebrating the rich legacy of music written by women.
In this concert, violinist Maja Hovat and pianist Joseph Havlat perform works by Grazyna Bacewicz, Isabella Ellis, Laure Chan, Lili Boulanger, Tonia Ko, Hollie Harding and Illuminates Artistic Director Angela Elizabeth Slater.
The whole programme demonstrates the strength and quality of output from composers living and working in Britain today, from a wide diverse set of backgrounds and walks of life. It represents the thriving creativity that is happening in Britain despite the arts sectors current struggles. The music will take the listeners on a journey from dream worlds and visual arts in my works, through the vivid and characterful voices of Lili Boulanger and Grazyna Bacewicz, and onto the diverse soundworlds of British composers, Tonia Ko, Hollie Harding, and Laurie Chan, with works touching on the emotional turmoil, chaos and frustration of the pandemic in Chans work Insanity to the deep and detailed exploration of sound and ant virtuosity in Kos Tribute (Axis II).
