Manchester’s Stoller Hall has announced the five musicians which will make up its 2025/26 cohort of the Haworth Emerging Artists Scheme.

The scheme welcomes four early-career musicians and ensembles who will enter a year of creative development, mentorship, performance and community engagement.

The artists will also feature in the Stoller Hall’s Rush Hour Concerts.

This year’s selected artists are:

Rory A. Green – A guitarist and composer drawing on northern jazz traditions and personal storytelling to create reflective, improvisation-rich soundscapes.

Eleanor Dunsdon and Gregor Black (Eleanor Gregor Duo) – A multi-award-winning Glasgow-based harp and percussion duo blending traditional music with jazz, folk, classical, and electronic influences.

Sagnick Mukherjee – A cosmopolitan violist whose music bridges the old and the new, drawing on a global palette of sounds from Hindustani and Western classical to Bengali and Scottish folk.

Dominic Mattos – A versatile countertenor exploring baroque gems and American cabaret, celebrated for his dynamic stage presence and wide-ranging repertoire.

The Haworth Emerging Artists Scheme is now in its third year.

The artists will perform a string of Rush Hour concerts:

Dominic Mattos: Thursday 9 October 2025 at 6pm

Sagnick Mukherjee: Thursday 6 November 2025 at 6pm
