For this concert, Indian Carnatic singing combines with experimental harp for an evening that marks the legacy of the great jazz musician Alice Coltrane. Supriya Nagarajan is a composer and singer who creates rich, dreamy soundscapes by combining her Indian musical background with contemporary classical music.
Tim Horton’s dazzling virtuosity and eclectic programmes have established him as one of the most sought-after pianists. His concert at Kettle’s Yard features music that looks to the past for answers to the future. Thomas Adès pays homage to Chopin, Julian Philips transports us to the intimate salon music of the 19th century, and Helen Grime reinvents miniature character pieces that were favoured by great composers of the past.
Join us for a special concert in the Kettle’s Yard House where we will be showcasing musical talent from students of the University of Cambridge.
This year’s concert has been programmed by Kettle’s Yard Student Programmer James MacConnachie.

Programme
Sophie Ellis (Voice) and Eleanor Medcalf (Harp)
Think of a platypus: they lay eggs, produce milk without nipples and venom without fangs, and can detect electricity. Or a marsupial: their babies can climb themselves into a pouch after just a couple of weeks in the womb, and some species can produce young like an endless conveyor belt of reproduction. From platypuses to kangaroos, Australia has some truly astonishing mammals, with incredible, unfamiliar features. But how does the world regard these creatures? And what does that mean for their conservation?
