Keri Newdigate comes from a musical family in which everyone played an instrument and music was a very natural part of their lives. From an early age she played 2-piano music with her mother. She says "Music is a deep and integral part of my identity, and it is from this wellspring that my musical improvisations turned into compositions". She studied music at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa, then did a Masters in Music Therapy through City University, London, UK. Her post graduate training focussed on working with people with disabilities. In the first year she worked with children who were autistic, had Down's Syndrome, learning difficulties or were severely disabled and confined to wheelchairs. In her second year of training, she worked with adults in palliative care and in neurological rehabilitation. Her dissertation was on a musician who had had a right hemisphere stroke, and examined how this had impacted on his life. Keri lives in Cape Town, South Africa with her husband and 2 children, who bring sunshine, laughter and deep joy into her life. She writes "I consider myself extremely fortunately to be able to do two things that I love - be a musician and be a mother".
