Event overview
New Horizons Focus: Frank Denyer
New Horizons features recent musical developments and musical crossovers with the shakuhachi, from the 1970s through to the present, including contemporary classical music, jazz, popular music, improvisation and electronic musics.
Frank Denyer is an English composer whose brilliantly coloured and imaginatively rich compositions fall between several and into none of the accepted categories of contemporary music.
