Listening Party: Paul Clark & Rakhi Singh on working with living composers

Co-artistic Director of Clod Ensemble Paul Clark in conversation with Co-Founder of Manchester Collective, Rakhi Singh

The role of the composer has changed a lot over the last 50 years – many artists are looking collaborate and work more closely with the musicians performing their work. Rakhi Singh, co-founder of Manchester Collective, has both written and commissioned many pieces. In this discussion, she talks about the different ways she has worked with very different artists – some working with purely acoustic music, and others using electronics – and shares some of her favourite recordings from the Manchester Collective archive.

This event will take place on zoom and will be live-captioned.
