Graduate Student, Institute for the Contemporary Arts
About
After graduating with a BA (Hons) in Music from the University of York, Helen spent ten years at Oxford University Press promoting copyright music to an international market. Subsequently family commitments were combined with running the Manchester-based new music group Psappha and FE work in the West Lancashire community. A growing academic interest in music led to the completion of an MA in Music since 1900 (with Distinction) at Liverpool Hope University. She is now in the second year of full-time doctoral studies at Lancaster University funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. Her research topic is 'Disturbing Times - authorial metaphors of temporality in music from the 1950s and 1960s'. Helen currently lectures part time at Liverpool Hope and Lancaster Universities, reviews contemporary music concerts and continues to play oboe and cor anglais. She is Membership Development Officer for The Royal Musical Association.
