Music in The Village
In 2002 I started a local concert series in St. Marys church, founded in the 12 century, in the heart of Walthamstow Village. It has a really lovely atmosphere for chamber music. 'Music in The Village', as it became, is widely known now and an ever growing audience comes from all over East London, and many from further beyond.
I couldn't have done it without Gail Hennessy, my partner - Gail is the Art Department and is fellow worker bee for the concerts.
Trevor Pinnock CBE gave our very first concert and included a first performance of a new piece, too. We are proud to be able to publicise that we have had a world premiere every year since.
See the full list to date.
Music in the Village is a not for profit organisation, it's aim is to provide affordable concerts of the highest standard.
ARTIST IN RESIDENCE
Music in the Village will have an artist in residence for the 2017-18 season. Anna Alcock will be working from the gallery at each concert. I'm very excited to see the work our concerts inspire.
