How very exciting, I've come back from a two week holiday (did you notice the quiet blog?!) and have been busying myself writing Wikipedia pages for the Orchestra and for our conductor and Artistic Director, Ronald Corp. Whilst doing my research for the citations, I found that Hyperion have posted some extracts of our new CD of string orchestra compositions by Polish composer Bacewicz. They sound great, click here to have a listen for yourself and let us know what you think!
I really like this - have a whole collection of Bacewicz's violin music bought in Poland that I should get round to playing! But I'd never heard her string orchestra music and I'm impressed.
Thanks Sarah! We've just had the completed CD arrive in the office, I love listening to it - especially as I was there at the recording. They'll be on sale at the Polska Music concert on 14th, will see you there.
The New London Orchestra's mission is to enable people of all ages and backgrounds to learn about, create and enjoy a wide range of music.
As well as regular central London performances and education and community work across the capital, we are launching a whole series of events and projects in East London.
