Quarantined Voices

Quarantined Voices

Following the announcement of the third Coronavirus lockdown in the UK, Emily launched a new project called Quarantined Voices to promote connectivity, creativity and communication. Each week, she wrote a piece for a musician to play as a solo, with electronics or with their household. This ran from January to June, when the project ended in a celebration of the world opening up and being able to make music together again.

Selected videos from the project are available below. All the pieces can be found on Emily’s social media, or on her Youtube channel here.
