Britten Pears Arts Open Session: Voices That Wander

Join composers Ana Silvera, Lydia Samuels, and Tomer Damsky for an Open Session, as they present works-in-progress developed during their week-long Britten Pears Arts Residency.

This informal event offers a unique opportunity to experience new music in the making and hear directly from the artists about their creative process.

Inspired by medieval Iberian texts and recordings, the trio explores musical connections between Sephardic, Arabic, and Ibero-Christian traditions. With guest artists Nawras Altaky (oud) and vocal ensemble HOWL, this event offers a rare glimpse into an evolving cross-cultural collaboration.
