about

From the undulating landscape of Yorkshire in the UK comes the dawn chorus of the birds accompanied by the magical sounds of the harp and mellifluous Indian vocals. Bhakti (devotion) and serenity lie at the core of this journey. Supriya Nagarajan plays with different languages from the North to the South of India to awaken the senses and reach out to the meditative inner core of the brain. Accompanying her on this journey are Lucy Nolan on the harp and Duncan Chapman on the sounds. This cultural and musical juxtaposition of words and sounds will create a restful and peaceful start to yet another interesting day with JLF.

Supriya Nagarajan is a UK based vocalist/composer who creates cross- cultural cross-genre concept driven immersive music work. She has toured the globe and created work for festivals like the hcmf//, Ultima Oslo and Iceland Symphony Orchestra. She is a Performing Rights Society/Jerwood composer and an alumni of New voices 2018 Sound and Music. She is the Artistic Director of Manasamitra, an UK based arts charity and a passionate advocate for fair access in the music sector.

Duncan Chapman: composer / musician based in Lincolnshire UK. Much of his work involves collaboration creating performances, installations & recordings. Recent projects include online live events & spatial audio research. Solo work is on Silent, Takuroku & Linear Obsessional labels & Dusk Notes, (collaboration with Supriya Nagarajan) released 2020.

Lucy Nolan is an award winning harpist who graduated with Distinctions in her postgraduate studies from Oxford University and the Royal Northern College of Music where she was a Gold Medal finalist. She regularly plays with professional orchestras and has toured throughout Europe. Passionate about developing new music that defies genre classification, she has performed at the Hong Kong World Harp Congress and Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival and is a founding member of the exciting new music ensemble, SHOAL, who develop works experimenting with sound, electronics, light and movement.
