Join us at the University of Glasgow Concert Hall on Friday 18 October and celebrate the recent release by Delphian Records of Jane’s first album Cerulean Orbits.

The album showcases pieces composed between 2013 and 2023 for different chamber combinations and features performances by Red Note Ensemble and The Hermes Experiment. In various ways the pieces project Jane’s preoccupation with gesture, intricately ornamented melodic patterning, and intertwining woven textures, balancing decoration with energetic directed motion.

As part of the event, Jane will also share a preview of a new self-paced online course to be hosted by Coursera. The 12-week course provides a range of skills and knowledge to learners who have some prior music training to develop their technique and individual identity as composers. It will cover the journey from starting a piece to developing material, through to preparing scores and parts for performance. Woven through the course will be regular appearances by Red Note Ensemble performing illustrative musical examples and sharing insights into topics including composer-performer collaboration, notation, playing techniques, and ensemble communication.

The event is free, but we ask you to register to secure a seat.

There will also be a drinks reception after Jane's presentation.
