Soundings

A new experimental series of ‘in conversation’ style events, pairing leading musicians with writers, is being launched by the University of St Andrews. The series, called Soundings, will launch on 4 November with PJ Harvey appearing alongside Irish poet Paul Muldoon in an intimate event at The Byre Theatre.

The aim of the series – which will initially see three events taking place between November and April 2015 – is to pair together internationally-renowned figures from the worlds of music and literature that are ‘spiritually or creatively influenced by one another’.

Each event will include a short solo set by each performer, followed by an unscripted conversation between the two on their working process.

Tickets are available online from the Byre box office or by calling 01334 475000. For further information on the series read the press release.
