Music in the ceremonies

Music for the graduation ceremonies has been composed and performed by alumni of the University’s School of Music.

Featuring in the arrival music playlist: 5-time Grammy winning jazz-fusion composer and pianist, Bill Laurance; West End actor, sing-songwriter, Mared Williams; multi-flautist, actor-musician, Rosanna Ter-Berg; Modern Classical innovator, pianist & composer, Simeon Walker; art-pop multi-instrumentalist and composer, Francesca Pidgeon; vibrant trad-folk singer and guitarist, George Sansome; distinctive guitar-led producer & songwriter, Conall Mulvenna; soul-pop singer songwriter, Alice Kim; pianist & composer, Gwenno Morgan; and, fused in Leeds, the genre-redefining, Hyde Park Brass.
