Polina Shepherd is a composer, performer, educator and cultural activist originally from Siberia, now living in Brighton UK. Her singing, though based on traditional forms, cuts a sound deeply rooted in east European Jewish and Russian folk. Growing up in Tatarstan also placed her close to Islamic ornamentation and timbre, which can be heard in her unique vocal style. Shepherd will lead a workshop with the University Chorus and the Women's Ensemble.
The public is invited to attend and observe.
