Hans Keller Forum (HKF) is a new ChamberStudio programme which provides in-depth mentorship for selected chamber ensembles from UK conservatoires. It runs as a set of 3-day residential courses held at West Road Concert Hall.
After three intensive residencies in September, January and April by acclaimed chamber musicians Alasdair Beatson, John Myerscough and Richard Ireland
the 2022/23 HKF groups perform in the Recital Room for the closing concert of this year’s Hans Keller Forum.
Hannah Uzor, current holder of the Milein Cosman Scholarship for Drawing at the Slade School of Fine Art, will be drawing the musicians at work as Artist in Residence.
HKF is funded by the Cosman Keller Art and Music Trust, the Albert and Eugenie Frost Music Trust CIO, and Philip Carne.
