“spartan, hypnotic and beautiful” The Guardian on Matthew Bourne
A very special music event in the chapel with two profoundly talented musicians
Matthew Bourne
Matthew Bourne is a recipient of numerous awards and accolades, and possesses an inventive and unique artistic approach for bringing infirm pianos back to life in Harpsichords (2024), collaborating with classical musicians of the London Sinfonietta in Written/Unwritten, the acclaimed solo piano albums, Montauk Variations, Isotach, and reinterpretations of Amon Tobin’s work for Ninja Tune.
Other projects include Radioland; a live reworking of Kraftwerk’s Radio-Activity album (in collaboration with Franck Vigroux & Antoine Schmitt), solo synthesiser album moogmemory; Nightports w/Matthew Bourne; and the double-album Aeolian, with the late Keith Tippett.
Bourne’s work has appeared on compilations by Bonobo and Hot Chip, and featured in Paolo Sorentino’s 2018 film LORO. Bourne continues to develop his solo piano work (Désinances / Irrealis / This Is Not For You.), and is currently working on a number of new projects – including the recently-released Hand to Mouth, for Fatcat Records with longtime collaborator Keeley Forsyth
“He improvises with a cyclonic energy and virtuosity… Bourne confronts listeners with the rawness of his music, rather than manipulating them with familiar licks.”

Alex Milling
Establishing himself in the North of England, Alex Izaak Milling has carved a unique corner into the thriving experimental improvised and DIY scene in Leeds. Specialising in extended improvisation with electronics and guitar, Milling pushes the role of technology in improvised music with the aim for complete synergy between technology and artist.
His upbringing in hardcore, emo and noise music lends to a dark sound palette yet still encapsulates the long lineage of free music from both the North of England, along with Europe and the East Coast of America.
