June 17 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm
6.30pm – Louise Drewett, Andrea Balency-Bearn, and Martha-Maria Mitu introduce their new pieces.
7.30pm – Lotte Betts-Dean (mezzo), Joseph Havlat (piano)
New music by six brilliant young women composers: Louise Drewett, Isabella Gellis, Joanna Ward, Rūta Vitkauskaitė, Andrea Balency-Bearn, and Martha-Maria Mitu. The performers are two extraordinary Australian musicians: Lotte Betts-Dean, whose singing shows ‘impressive control, an irrepressible sense of drama and extraordinary self-assurance’ and ‘an unmissable, urgent musicality’ (The Guardian), and pianist Joseph Havlat, whose career has included being a soloist with the London Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican.
The concert is preceded by a talk at 6:30 with the composers – a first for Folkestone New Music.
The concert starts at 7.30.
