BLACK HAIR CONTEMPORARY MUSIC ENSEMBLE

Black Hair is an ensemble of musicians who share a commitment to exploring new ways of presenting new music. Together the group devises programmes which take the audience on a journey - sometimes quite literally - and their concerts need to be seen as well as heard. Experienced workshop leaders, the group also strives to share its ideas through collaborations and residencies, especially with young musicians, actors and dancers.
