We inspire and surprise audiences, creating memorable and meaningful experiences. We use an artisan approach to present new music, from established concert venues to unusual spaces. Our events often cross the boundaries with arts and non-arts partnerships, as well as mixing music with theatre, visual arts, museums and more. Alongside our events, we reach young people and various communities with a diverse education and outreach programme.
Our regular Oxford gigs and concerts bring the best of the new in an array of genres and cross genre. This year’s programme includes Sam Lee & Friends, Matthew Herbert’s 20 Pianos, Breath by Orlando Gough + more…
