In November, Hani graduated with a Master’s of Music in Composition from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama. During his time in the conservatoire he specialised in orchestration, conducting, sound design and sonic manipulation.
He is the director of a new collaborative project called the Earlscourtestra. The project started as a means for building a score for a new documentary art film by Dian Joy, a visual artist with an artist residency in West London. Howerver, the Earlscourtestra has become a weekly experimental sonic exploration, interested in preserving the sounds of the local area and making new ones. The orchestra is a community-focused and driven endeavour, with Hani at the helm, organising workshops, lessons and rehearsals. This project will continue from November into Spring 2026.
