WHO WE ARE

HEXAD Collective was founded by Daniel Gethin in 2019, specialising in vocal chamber music, underpinned by an interest in different 6 voice textures, imaginative programming, regular commission, and education through contemporary music. The ensemble comprises 8 regular members, granting flexibility to allow the unique resonance of different pairings of voices within the group to shine through.

 

HEXAD Collective is also unique in having two composer-singers as part of its regular membership, permanent composers-in-residence with differing musical outlooks, providing a platform for new music and innovative events. The composers are therefore given full rein to create new music and work on these pieces from their perspective within the group.
