And now on into the new academic year…

A year in the life: music at Kent 2010-11 newsletter

Simply writing a review of last year’s musical activities here at the University has made me realise what a terrifically versatile, extra-curricular department we have: everything from formal classical Cathedral concerts (too much alliteration ?!) to informal jazz gigs, music theatre productions, Scholars’ recitals, and far too many other activities to mention here. Students, staff, alumni, members of the local community, visiting professional players – all contributing to a rich and varied aspect of the University’s cultural life, and creating a vibrant social side to everything that goes on here.

Including some fine photographs courtesy of Mick Norman, here’s the review of last year; and if you think that’s good, wait until you see what’s lined up for this year when the Autumn brochure is published shortly…

A backward glance: review of the year

With the summer term at Kent now over, time to reflect on all the events and activities that have contributed to another fantastic year of music-making at the University.

From large-scale concerts in Canterbury Cathedral and Eliot College to informal events such as the Eliot College Soirée and Carols Round the Tree, jazz gigs and alumni events, developments in plans for the new building and singing for ‘Children in Need,’ (not to mention the crowning glory of ArtsFest!), there’s been something to suit a diverse spectrum of musical tastes.
