An innovative music and poetry performance series conceived and performed by poet Cheryl Moskowitz and musician/sound artist Alastair Gavin and their guests.


The Sessions feature a changing line up, with a guest poet and musician collaborating with Cheryl and Alastair to create a special one-off performance.


Guest poets have included Matthew Caley, Richard Scott, Dorothea Smartt, Hannah Lowe, Denise Saul, Richard Price, Hannah Lowe, Mario Petrucci, Briony Littlefair, Abigail Parry and Will Harris. Guest musicians have included Malcolm Ball, Ondes martenot; Ian Burdge, cello; Carol Grimes, voice; Katie Wilkinson, viola; Elinor Popham, voice; Tim Sanders, saxophone.


With special lighting, electronics and surround sound audio, the intersections of spoken word & music, voice & soundscape, poetry & song, are explored to create something uniquely atmospheric, immersive and memorable.


Since lockdown we made shows for transmission online: FaceBook Live in April 2020,

Poetry in Aldeburgh in November 2020, and the British Schools Museum in March 2021.

All online shows watchable on our video page.


In June 2024 we were back live with our new show After You, Mr. Ryder at

Poetry in Music Room, Bloomsbury.
