SUMMARY:LONDON, UK – KADIATU – KEYNOTE
DESCRIPTION:SPEAKERS\nKadiatu Kanneh-Mason\nVENUE NOTE\nNew Works: From Historical to Hip-Hop\nBlack Lives in Music: Classically Black\nExplore the shifting boundaries of classical music in this dynamic session featuring bold new works and genre-defying performances. A part of Classically Black 2025.\nNow in its second year, Classically Black is more than a festival—it’s part of a wider cultural movement, amplifying underrepresented voices and reshaping classical music across the UK.\nOpening with a keynote from Dr Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason, this event moves through a range of powerful musical expressions, from the rich, expressive works of Louise Farrenc and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, performed by the Sabi Ensemble, to the innovative fusion of Simmy Singh, whose violin and electronics blend classical, jazz, folk and experimental sound worlds.\nBringing the session to a thrilling close, The Jollof House Party Opera serves up a spicy mix of opera and hip-hop in a high-energy, hybrid performance. Co-produced by Music Theatre Wales and FIO, this is opera, but not as you know it.\nThis performance invites you to experience new voices and fresh narratives rooted in both tradition and transformation.\nNow in its 5th year, Black Lives in Music continues to champion equity and representation in the industry. This performance marks not only a platform for talent, but also a celebration of a milestone moment in advocacy, creativity, and cultural transformation.\nJoin us for our 5th anniversary celebrations with DJ Spoony & Friends — part of the multi-buy offer and the perfect way to end the day.\n
