Original works written with and for people with Parkinson’s disease are to be premiered in a special concert at the Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM) in Manchester.
The Music for Parkinson’s concert, to be held on 30 January, will feature seven short pieces that have been written by seven composers from the RNCM in close collaboration with ten people with Parkinson’s (PwP) from across the UK. The composers are Professors Adam Gorb and Emily Howard, PhD students Cee Haines, Megan Steinberg and Simon Knighton, and undergraduate composition students Amit Manna and Ella Laughton. The programme will be performed on piano by PGDip student Yuanfan Yang and will include a panel discussion with some of the writers and their collaborators.
