University of Kent School of Music and Fine Art (SMFA) lecturer and soprano Sarah Dacey released her debut solo album Calliope on 26 March.

Sarah – best known for being part of the Juice Vocal Ensemble – has teamed up with pianist Belinda Jones on the new album.

Featuring songs by some of the UK’s finest composers, including Kerry Andrew, Roger Marsh, Bushra El-Turk and Duncan MacLeod, the album is being issued by the SMFA’s Foundry Studio.

Studio Manager Phil Marsh described the songs’ subject matter as ‘eclectic’ and ‘a wonderful example of the breadth of 21st Century vocal repertoire that’s seldom published or recorded’.
