About this Event

The New Music for Old Hands project brings composers into long-term care to connect with the people who live there who play in an amateur handbell choir.

Each matinee concert of this series will premiere a composition that came out of these meetings, performed by the Labdara bell choir and Laura Gillis (conductor/pianist). The composer will be present, in person or virtually, to give a talk and share some more music.

May 16th - Louise Campbell (virtual)

May 30th - Lieke van der Voort (virtual)
