Berezan and Blackburn concert at Bournemouth University
Last night (27 March 2019) we welcomed David Berezan to Bournemouth University for a concert of immersive acousmatic music. David played a mixture of his own work and that of Manuela Blackburn. It was a fantastic concert and it was great to have such a rich and coherent programme. Sincere thanks to David for playing here.

EMAS at 40
On 25–26 January I attended and presented music at the Electroacoustic Music Association of Great Britain 40th Anniversary, taking place at the University of Greenwich.

And it was great to meet up with so many friends and to be part of this amazing community of composers. Thanks to Adam Stanovic and James Andean of the British Electroacoustic Network and Andrew Hill of University of Greenwich for all their efforts in prganising such a great weekend.
