Awhile back I had picked up a Cambridge Concert Calendat pamphlet in one of the souvenir shops. This appears to list all of the concerts held in the various colleges that are open to the public for the Michaelmas term of October through December. Some of the concerts require a paid admission, but many are free. We thought this might be a great way to see a new campus as well as listen to music that we might not normally listen to.
We dipped our toe in the water today and made the short walk to Homerton College for a 40 minute free lunch jazz piano recital by Gabriel Margolis, who we assume is a student at one of the colleges. There were a total of 10 people there to watch, which was almost as many chairs as they had set up.
He played a total of seven songs, some of his own and some of friends, mentors, or people he is inspired by. It was a great outing. We enjoyed seeing some of the campus as well as his music.
