    Spread over 3 different time zones 17 hours apart, Jonny chats to SK ‘horn star’ Anneke Scott and Professor Bertil van Boer of Western Washington University in a deep dive into the origins of the horn in art music performance, specifically in the context of the music of our beloved Johann Sebastian Bach.

  • How shall we sing the Lord's song? Help for non-believers.
    Apr 6 2023

    SK alto Kate Symonds-Joy (codename KSJ) interviews director Tom Guthrie, SK sopranos Zoë Brookshaw and Clare Lloyd-Griffiths, and the Preacher of Lincoln's Inn chapel, the Ven Sheila Wilson, on a search for answers to her burning questions:

    - as a performer who feels most satisfied and honest when they fully immerse themselves in the text and music at hand, how do I commit to sacred music in concert performance?
    - do my own beliefs or feelings matter when I'm performing? 
    - and a few more...to which there may or may not be any answers!
