'Superb playing & composers new to me - Alexey Shmurak, Sarah Hennies, & John White; more of whose work that I need to search out'
'Fabulous programme @PlusMinusEns @mwlth - a real pleasure to hear John White's witty, Satie-esque pieces & lovely to see the composer in the audience'
'Stunning work this evening. Wonderful exacting serious playing of near-music'

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.
