Once a week a group of composers come together in Dorchester to discuss each other’s work. They met some years ago during a composition course at Oxford University’s Ewert House and now meet in a music room in Dorchester.
The members of the group have a diversity of styles, and there will be an opportunity in the afternoon of May 11th to hear the work of three of them.
The concert will open with some wind quartets, for Flute, Oboe, Clarinet and Bassoon, played by members of the Langtree Sinfonia, then two trios for Violin, Viola and Piano played by the PaDaTi trio.
The last item will be Henry and his Wives, a light-hearted cantata by Tim Cook, with illustrations by Adrian Brooks, about the much-married monarch and his unfortunate consorts.
The concert will last about 45 minutes, entrance is free and there will be an opportunity to make a donation for the upkeep of the Abbey.
