audience comments:
'Viols and Objects was another example from MWLTH of striking programming concept! and as always, convincingly and lovingly executed in performance.'
'There was a definite 'buzz' to the occasion. The atmospheric surroundings of the church, and circular stage layout were the perfect setting for an evening of evocative and sublime sonic experience.'
'this was exquisitely curated, comprising a small number of relatively unknown but genuinely fascinating pieces, brilliantly realised by the excellent playing of the Ligeti Quartet.'
'I would just like to say that coming to your viols and objects concert was one of my highlights of last year. I brought my parents on their wedding anniversary and they loved it.'
'A life-changing experience. I've never known an audience like it.' Laurence Dreyfus, Professor at Magdalen College, Oxford & Director of Phantasm
'Labels like old and new, traditional and radical became refreshingly irrelevant, and what we had instead was an expansive musical experience.' Jennie Gottschalk, Boston, USA

support music we'd like to hear
We are a collective of musicians and composers who, since 2005, have been creating a one-of-a-kind space where we welcome listeners to come together to share and celebrate new and neglected contemporary music. We hand-pick the programmes with the aim of sharing our fascination and enthusiasm with everyone. We provide a platform for creative & experimental work, for showcasing emerging talent, and for promoting learning and collaboration.
As a not-for-profit organisation, our ability to sustain this series depends solely on ticket sales, funding awards, and donations, with all of the proceeds going towards the musicians and composers. We strive to keep ticket prices affordable so that as many as possible can experience these exceptional events.
Please consider supporting Music We'd Like to Hear with a one-off or regular donation. Every contribution helps us to continue providing this space for inspiring music from our world-wide community.
