I represent a British music charity that is organizing a music course on the Scottish island of Skye and I was hoping you would be kind enough to put this on your events listings:
rarescale on Skye a music course on the idyllic Scottish island of Skye for the alto and bass flute , oboe and cor anglais as well as a electro acoustic course and composers retreat. for further details visit www.rarescaleonskye.co.uk or contact info@rarescaleonskye.co.uk
Our heartfelt thanks go to Richard Carder, who stepped down as SCA Chairman this evening, to make time for his forthcoming MPhil on Ivor Gurney's asylum music at Bristol University. Richard was the inspiration and driving force for the formation of SCA in 2003, and has remained central in inspiring and arranging concerts, recordings and other SCA events. Richard does however plan still to be actively involved in SCA's activities.
Steven Kings was unanimously voted in as Richard's successor, so our thanks to him for accepting the baton.
Future events - two more Composer Talks (details elsewhere on this page), and a possible six-hands-at-one-piano project.
