Our Journey Monday 11 June, 4–6pm CHELMSFORD CAMPUS Tuesday 19 June, 4–6pm CAMBRDIDGE CAMPUS

Department of Music & Performing Arts

Creative Music Tech DJ night Tuesday 5 June, 7.30pm–10.30pm THE ACADEMY, ANGLIA RUSKIN UNIVERSITY Check out these sounds from our graduating Creative Music Technology students. You’ll have a great audio experience and a night to remember!

Our Journey depicts a voyage towards bright horizons, where souls spring and blossom unfettered. A large ensemble of brass, percussion, soloists and choir, sails through a tempest of blustery winds and treacherous shoals, eventually reaching a placid vastness in which spirits roam free and wild. Commissioned to celebrate Anglia Ruskin University’s 25th anniversary, this composition represents, through the metaphor of the journey, the path of a University education; a path that starts with a stormy, music-theatre preamble and concludes in a triumphant, funky hymn which everyone – audience included – can sing along to.
