Studio Stories is Hawkwood's brand new series of episodes that will give you a glimpse into what goes on in our artist residencies. Recorded at Hawkwood from the artist's studio space. Enjoy this first episode with Matthew Barley. Matthew Barley has created a unique international career full of improvisation, new music, cutting-edge computer technology, collaboration with jazz and Indian musicians, education, and arranging – but always with cello playing at the heart. He has played with some of the finest orchestras (Frankfurt Radio Symphony, BBC Philharmonic/Scottish, Czech Philharmonic), in some of the greatest concert halls, given premieres by major composers (MacMillan, Dusapin, Larcher) and appeared on tv and radio worldwide. He counts himself blessed to be able to dream up unusual projects and (usually) make them happen, and also pursue his own personal dreams of spending time with family and in nature.

Jaz O'Hara & Steve Sevele and Matt Shaw. The Refugee Crisis remains the biggest humanitarian crisis of our time. The UNHCR predicts that by 2050, 1 billion people will be displaced. But for many of us, this raises lots of questions… Why are so many people leaving their countries? Where are they coming from? Where are they going? What are their journey's like and what is life like inside Europe's refugee camps? For the opportunity to explore this issue, tune in on our conversation with Jaz O'Hara, founder of The Worldwide Tribe and leading voice on migration. Although we might not relate to being a ‘refugee' or ‘asylum seeker', we all live on this earth together and are all impacted by migration.
