- Notes: Hilary Robinson is a composer, performer and teacher. She studied classical music composition with teachers including Kaija Saariaho and Anders Eliasson, living in Finland for a decade after studies at Helsinki’s Sibelius Academy. Based in London since returning to the UK, she is now active in different musical contexts ranging from spontaneous music to punk, especially on the melodica. As an improviser, she appeared recently in the Ealing Extranormal series and has been part of David Leahy’s Underscoring study group project for improvising musicians and dancers at Trinity Laban throughout 2025. She has recorded on labels Second Language Music, WIAIWYA, Castles in Space and 9128.live, the latter with electronic music artist Jo Johnson as an electroacoustic duo. Her music has been broadcast on BBC Radio 3, Resonance FM and Curved Radio (Australia), and performed in Europe, the US and the UK at festivals such as London’s Music We’d Like to Hear, the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival and Daylight Music. She has also worked with ensembles including the Fidelio Trio and Ensemble Noszferatu, and pianists Jonathan Powell, Mary Dullea and Mark Knoop.
