Kevos

Kevos is dedicated to performing contemporary classical music by new and established composers to audiences curious about the music of today.

Kevos performs a wide range of the best of new music including composers Steve Reich, Judith Weir, Charlotte Bray and Richard Causton

“What Kevos is doing in Cornwall is important and impressive, and on the strength of this they’re clearly an ensemble to keep a close eye on.”

Our cross-art collaborations include:

Film: Ed Hughes’ scores to Battleship Potemkin and I was born but

Dance: Glassworks (Phillip Glass) with Cheap Date Dance

Opera: David Bruce’s The Firework Maker’s Daughter with Tête-à-tête opera

“Steve Reich Double Sextet was played to powerful effect. This was a revelation, enjoyed by an appreciative audience.”
