Upbeat: For the punters
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.CAMBRIDGE is looking musically lively this summer, with two of July's freshest series carrying on through the first week of August, both with an early-music focus. The Cambridge Summer Recitals are strong on organists; there's also a date with the virtuoso natural trumpeter Crispian Steele-Perkins and the Chandos Baroque Players, and tonight a programme by Sirinu called The Frozen Jewel of Potosi, which makes links between contemporary Andean music and Renaissance Spain. Tickets from the Cambridge Music Shop (0223 351786).
A couple of the recitals clash with the concert series of the Cambridge Early Music Summer Schools, but the choice is a clear- cut one since the latter ones are voice-led. Tonight the Hilliard Ensemble, who have been giving classes for the past week, join the soprano Suzie Le Blanc at Trinity Hall for psalms and madrigals by Schutz and Monteverdi; and they are followed by a Renaissance week with Musica Antiqua of London (details: 0223 354096).
