My name is Lauren Redhead and I am a composer living in Leeds, UK.
I am interested in new music and new aesthetics.
About Me
Through this site I will be lifestreaming about the new music scene here in Leeds and as far afield as my life and interests take me.
I will post concert details, reviews and opinions, links to other composers and genuine new musical activities, and recount my own experiences of all of these, and all hopefully without being too serious.
I am currently writing a PhD in composition at the University of Leeds. My supervisors are Prof. Derek Scott and Dr Martin Iddon, and my research is funded by the AHRC. I have also worked with Dr Mic Spencer at the University of Leeds.
Much of my time is spent writing music. The rest of my time is spent writing about music, and sometimes performing music, as an organist and with the quasi-spontaneous ensemble projectisle.
