Hans Keller Forum: Lecture

  • West Road Concert Hall Cambridge (map)

Susi Woodhouse, curator at the Cambridge University Library, presents a lecture exploring aspects of the Hans Keller Archive.

Tickets are free of charge but must be reserved in advance.

A musician of penetrating insight, Hans Keller (1919-1985) was also an exceptional broadcaster, passionate teacher and compulsive writer, whose remarkable mind dominated British musical life for forty years after the Second World War. His extensive archive was donated to the University Library in 1995 by his widow, the artist Milein Cosman.

Hans Keller Forum (HKF) provides in-depth mentorship for selected chamber ensembles from UK conservatoires. It runs as a set of three day residential courses held at West Road Concert Hall.

The ensembles selected for the 2023/24 forum are:

Quartet Concrète - GSMD

Trio Havisham - RAM

Lark Trio - RCS

Talland Quartet - RNCM

They will be mentored by Alasdair Beatson and Richard Ireland.

Hannah Uzor rejoins ChamberStudio for a second year as Artist in Residence.
