The ability to make sense of musical sound has been observed in every culture since the beginning of recorded history. In early infancy, it allows us to respond to the sing-song interactions from a primary caregiver and to engage in musical play. In later life, it shapes our social and cultural identities and modulates our affective and emotional states. In this illuminating talk, Professor Lauren Stewart will show that the ability to perceive and make sense of musical sound is remarkably sophisticated, and can be acquired simply by being exposed to the music of one’s own culture. From those who have too little music in their lives (those with ‘congenital amusia’) to those with too much (musical earworms or even hallucinations), we will consider what we can learn from studying these phenomena scientifically. Finally, we will explore the therapeutic potential of music, with examples from stroke rehabilitation and perinatal mental health in sub-Saharan Africa. This talk will give you a unique insight into music, its place in our lives, communities and culture and why it has been referred to as ‘the most underutilised health asset on the planet’. Doors open at 7pm, talk starts at 7.30pm - come down early to grab a good seat! Follow us on IG @seedtalks Lauren is Professor of Psychology at the University of Roehampton.. She has published widely on topics including learning and plasticity, congenital amusia, earworms and therapeutic aspects of music. She has been engaged in several citizen science and public engagement projects, including a Silent Disco earworm experiment at Manchester’s Museum of Science and Industry, a live experiment on musical plagiarism at the Science Museum’s Dana Centre and an in depth discussion on the ‘Tingle Factor’ in music as part of Radio 3’s Wellcome Collection residency. She is currently leading a large global health initiative called CHIME Project, which explores how culturally embedded musical practices can support women’s mental health during pregnancy.

The Bridge Quartet play The Music of: Sonny Rollins Inspired by saxophonist Sonny Rollins’ and guitarist Jim Hall’s legendary quartet collaboration, as immortalised by their record ‘The Bridge’, the new Scandinavian-British Bridge Quartet was set up by British guitarist James Girling after he recently moved to Norway. Bringing together compatriot saxophonist Dave Edge and the formidable young rhythm section of Danish drummer Emil Norman and Norwegian double bassist Andreas Svabø, this all-Oslo-based quartet establishes a conduit between British and Scandinavian musicians for expressing their shared love of the American modern jazz tradition against a contemporary northern European backdrop. Bridge Quartet ’s debut project pays tribute to Sonny Rollins’ iconic album ‘The Bridge’, played in its entirety, alongside gems from Rollins’ following album ‘What’s New’: all recorded within a few months in early 1962 by Rollins’ same band of Hall, Bob Cranshaw (bass) and Ben Riley (drums). This project is touring Norway and the UK in 2025 (the year the saxophone colossus himself turns 95). Limited Advance Tickets available. Walk-ins welcome. Doors open at 8pm. Over 18's only.

Family friendly all ages and abilities session. Please note, the stated time includes kit on/ off time. What happens at family friendly learn n' roll? It is a roller disco, but at the Ramgarhia Sports Centre! Expect old school disco vibes, with tips to improve your skating and optional games, complete with cold soft drinks. Quad and inline skaters are welcome. We have a small amount of space for accompanying non-skating partners and parents/carers. We allow parents/carers to walk with their child within the practise zone space, not around the full hall thank you. Roller skating is hard at any age! We expect all skaters to encourage each other and give less experienced skaters a bit more room. Is this a coached session? We are able to offer mini workshops in the form of a few quick tips, but our team needs to look after all the skaters in the session. This includes checking you've put wrist guards on correctly - they are tricky - to getting our newer skaters rolling. After that, we will do our best to support other skate skills requested within the session, but for more structured learning, check our sessions at The Skate Sanctuary. These are split by age and skill level so we can really tailor our coaching to your needs. There is a part of the hall set out as a 'practise zone' for building confidence, while the rest of the hall is set out as a rink. We may play games during the session. All games are optional - if you do not wish to take part, simply keep skating in the practise zone. Will skate hire be available? Yes, you will be able to hire our roller skates. Please make sure you book a separate skate hire ticket and tell us the size you need. We will have protective pads available for you to borrow on a first come first served basis.
