ST EDMUNDSBURY CATHEDRAL

anneryan — Wed, 14 May 2008 16:53:03 +0000

Music

Music has been offered to God in this corner of Bury St Edmunds for over a thousand years. The monks in the mediaeval Abbey were replaced after its closure in the sixteenth century by choirs of men and boys. Today, that tradition continues at St Edmundsbury Cathedral and has been expanded to include several choirs numbering over 100 young people and nearly 50 adults. Music is the principal means of expressing the worship of God in this holy place.

tomadams — Thu, 08 May 2008 14:01:46 +0000

Start: 30 May 2008 - 19:00

Timezone: Etc/GMT

Stan Sulzmann is without question one of the most highly respected musicians in the UK today, admired by musicians and audiences for his instantly recognisable sound, and boundless creative imagination, and is a source of inspiration to many of Britain's emerging young musicians.

Sulzmann's career stretches back to the 60's, when as part of a uniquely talented crop of British musicians, he played with Graham Collier, John Taylor, Kenny Wheeler, Gordon Beck, as well as leading many groups of his own.

Since that time Stan has been at the forefront of European contemporary jazz, and his talents have been sought by a host of discerning musicians, including Gil Evans, Mike Gibbs, Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland and Michael Brecker. Constantly in demand as a guest soloist, he has appeared with bands across Europe, including the Hilversum Radio Orchestra, NDR Big Band (alongside Chet Baker), Hanover Radio Symphony Orchestra and the New York Composers Orchestra.

New Live Electronic Music for Several Loudspeakers by members of MEME@Anglia Ruskin University.

The multiple speaker arrangement allows the sound to manifest itself physically, and be moved arround the room. the performance is of a pre recorded soundscape that will be controlled and directed arround the room. The pieces are regularly mood pieces, that cunjure up an atmosphere through the timbre of the sound, and the presentation of the sound in the physical space. Often the performer is also the composer of the music.

This afternoons concert is directed by Julio d'Escriván.
