Скачать или смотреть Lucy Samuels - Parasitism, Prostitution or Negation (EDI ‘The Collection’ an artistic response)

To mark the launch of the Centre for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in the Arts (CEDIA), Royal Birmingham Conservatoire celebrates the diversity of its students, through commissioning a collection of six artistic responses to various aspects of equality, diversity and inclusion.

These short artistic responses range from spoken word and monologues, to improvised new music and existing music that invoke emotions of various EDI aspects such as neuro divergence, LGBTQ+, race equality, access and economic diversity.

CEDIA is an exciting new initiative that seeks to engage with, promote and challenge issues of equality, diversity and inclusion in the Arts.

The Centre will act as a locus across the University and City region in collaboration with our cultural partners to offer a critical and practical space for thinking and doing equality, diversity and inclusion in the Arts. The Centre will host a range of talks, public lectures, and workshops through conventional and unconventional formats.

Lucy Samuels currently studies at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire with Matthew Sharp as her teacher. She makes her concerto debut in 2022 with the RBC Projects Orchestra with Michael Nyman’s Double Concerto for Amplified Saxophone and Cello, alongside fellow student Nicole Micheli.

Lucy has a particular interest in performing works by composers from under-represented backgrounds and those works that are underplayed in the repertoire. Her work as a cellist is far-reaching, encompassing outreach and educational programmes, orchestral work and chamber music. She currently plays with both the Félicité Piano Trio and Infinite Opera Company as their regular cellist, alongside enjoying freelance work.
