Past Illuminate Concerts - 2018 concert series:
Illuminate 2018 concert series aims to shining light on the works of women composers and performers. The concert series has been set up by Dr Angela Elizabeth Slater. The concert series will programme new works by composers Angela Elizabeth Slater, Gemma McGregor, Blair Boyd, Sarah Westwood and Carol J Jones, written for performers Késia Decoté (piano), Cassie Matthews (guitar), Sabina Virtosu (violin) and composer-performer Gemma McGregor (flute/shakuhachi).
