In Tune at Free Thinking

Sean Rafferty launches the Free Thinking Festival with a programme of live music making and chat from Sage Gateshead.

Sean Rafferty launches this year's Free Thinking Festival with a programme of live music making and chat. Among his guests are the Festival Lecturer Linda Yueh, New Generation Thinker Daisy Fancourt, who researches the links between arts and health, and the choir Voices of Hope, who perform a brand new piece by composer Lucy Pankhurst marking a hundred years since the first women in this country won the right to vote, with a text by Helen Pankhurst based on words by her great-grandmother, suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst.
