All Saints Church, Tudeley near Tonbridge
TN11 0NZ
7.30pm
Olwen Foulkes & Tabea Debus – Recorders

In this programme, Flauti d’echo celebrate the arrival of spring with music from Germany, England, France, and Italy. Cheeky cuckoos, blossoming flowers, dancing shepherds and buffeting winds frame a beautiful pastoral aria ‘Awake, Thou Wintry Earth’ by J.S. Bach. The recital will include music by Vivaldi, Handel, and Purcell alongside some lesser-known composers of the 17th and 18th Centuries.

Musical Director: Peter Bowman
Tonbridge North Recorders are a friendly group of about 15 recorder players directed by Dr Peter Bowman, a professional recorder player and teacher. We meet on Monday evenings in a church hall in Tonbridge, from 8-10 pm to play a wide variety of music. We follow school terms, usually with 10 meetings for each of the Autumn, Spring and Summer terms and in addition we give occasional concerts. If you are interested in joining us, please contact us for more information. You should be able to sight-read music at an intermediate level and preferably play at least 2 of the four standard instruments.
