SUMMARY:Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective
DESCRIPTION:Each of the composers in Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective’s concert was encouraged in ways that helped combat and overcome self-serving male prejudices\, starting in the 1670s when Élisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre joined the musicians of Louis XIV’s court. The programme includes a fresh arrangement of Amy Beach’s romantic Invocation and Madeleine Dring’s life-enhancing Trio\, before culminating in Fanny Mendelssohn’s glorious\, impassioned Piano Trio\, which has become a signature work for Kaleidoscope.

SUMMARY:Lubomyr Melnyk - First return series
DESCRIPTION:The Ukrainian wizard-pianist Lubomyr Melnyk is back for two concerts in The New Space\, New College\, on the 23rd and 24th this February (8pm)\, once again as a guest of the Balliol College Musical Society. During his electric Oxford debut last November\, Lubomyr\, with his unique ‘continuous music’\, filled three concert halls in three colleges to thunderous applause and our first-ever sight of academics in tears. \nThis time around\, Lubomyr will be accompanied by the professional filmmaker Rupert Clague who is working on a documentary about him\, executively produced by Werner Herzog\, and we are excited to announce a collaboration with the creative arts research team Creative Empirical\, inviting all audience members to participate in a pilot study as a basis for further research on the remarkable effects of Lubomyr’s music and technique on himself and receptive audience members. \nThis “operatic classical music” is rooted in Western classical harmony and is fundamentally an ode to Beethoven\, but is heavily inspired by Eastern philosophies and traditions\, for example by Indian classical sitar. Producing an extremely immersive\, multitextural yet delicate sound from a single\, supremely resonant instrument\, continuous music is a new voice for piano music unlike any sound of an ordinary concert\, in a way that many find deeply moving.
